Journal Entry Prep

This walks you through the mechanics of booking month-end journal entries with proper debit/credit structure and documentation. It covers the usual suspects: AP accruals, depreciation, prepaid amortization, payroll entries, and revenue recognition. You get standard entry templates for each type, calculation methods (like straight-line vs declining balance depreciation), and a practical review checklist that catches things like missing reversals or wrong periods. The approval matrix and common errors section are lifted straight from actual close processes. It won't give you accounting advice, but if you're building tools that need to validate JE workflows or you're just trying to understand what your finance team actually does during close, this gives you the operational detail.
