Pinlearning
Summary
Overview
While bookkeeping differs largely from accounting, the former accounts for a large part of the accounting process. Book-keeping focuses on the process of recording daily financial transactions such as purchases, receipts, and sales commonly done using a general ledger or journal. Since this area is prone to errors, a skilled and compliant bookkeeper is needed to make sure that all records are up-to-date, accurate and true.
This course provides a good working knowledge on the different bookkeeping methodologies and practices essential to effectively record and store financial information on a daily basis.
