10 November 2009 Bank OCC-Open Cash Credit
Bank Od-Over draft
Both are loan accounts
Always Bank OCC or OD accounts shows Credit Balance
Bank current account will always show Debit Balance
You will come across Interest on loan account in Loan account and where as you will not find such entry

in other words

OD - An overdraft occurs when withdrawals from a bank account exceed the available balance which gives the account a negative balance - a person can be said to have gone "overdrawn".

If there is a prior agreement with the account provider for an overdraft protection plan, and the amount overdrawn is within this authorised overdraft, then interest is normally charged at the agreed rate. If the balance exceeds the agreed terms, then fees may be charged and higher interest rate might apply.
