Daybook

View the daily record of all financial transactions in MediFlux. See money received, money spent, customer and supplier dues, and every journal entry for the selected period.

1 min read

The Daybook is a chronological list of every financial transaction that affected your accounts during the selected period. It shows money that came in, money that went out, new customer dues, and new supplier dues, along with the full debit and credit details of each entry.

Navigate here from the sidebar: Accounting → Daybook.

By default the Daybook shows the current month. A newly initialized store will usually show only the Accounting Initialization entry and zero values in most summary cards.

Newly initialized stores

On a store that has just completed accounting setup you will typically see:

  • Summary cards mostly at ₹0.00 (except Supplier Dues Added if opening balances were entered)
  • A single entry with type ACCOUNTING INITIALIZATION
  • Description: Entries Added On Initialization Of Chart Of Accounts

This is expected. More rows appear as soon as you record sales, purchases, payments, and manual journals.

Common mistakes

Looking at the wrong date range

The Daybook defaults to the current month. If the list looks empty or incomplete, open the date range picker and select a wider period or Last Month.

Missing the linked sale or purchase

Some descriptions show a Sale or Purchase link with an arrow. Clicking the link opens the original document. If you only read the text and ignore the link, you miss the fastest way to see full transaction details.
