To understand ledger postings. You need to have knowledge of Journal. You better start studying Pre University(First Year) accounts. It will clarify all your doubts. Authors like B S Raman & T V Raju ...etc

Its too time consuming to expalin the concept on CCI Forum. No body will type the whole content.

 

Better to refer +1 Accounts Book. it will provide the clear & basic points. You will learn it easily.
