- Opening
- Debits
- Credits
- Closing

The sum of all closing balances in a Trial Balance must be zero. 

### Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable (AP / AR)

These reports help you to track the outstanding invoices sent to Customer and Suppliers. In this report, you will get your outstanding amounts period wise. i.e. between 0-30 days, 30-60 days and so on.

You can also get your payables and receivables from direct reports on Sales Invoice and Purchase Invoice.

### Sales and Purchase Register

This is useful for making your tax statements invoice and Item wise. In this report, each tax Account is transposed in columns and for each Invoice and invoice Item, you will get the amount of individual tax that has been paid based on the Taxes and Charges table.
