If you are issuing cheques against petty expenses then that should not be a part of your Petty cashbook

For the expenses cheque paid in April month you should debit to expenses account and credit to Outstanding Expenses account as on 31st March and in the month of April you should debited to Outstanding Expenses account and credited to bank account.

There are no need to show this expenses in your petty cash book.
