The Cashbook is where every non-sale money movement lives: paying suppliers, collecting from credit customers, paying rent, moving cash to the bank. Each entry writes a proper double-entry journal — you see the debit/credit before you post.

Finding past entries
Search by memo or journal number, and filter by date range — every entry links back to the journal it wrote.
Tip: The memo is what you'll search for at month-end. "Shop rent March" beats "payment" every time.
