Dear Vijay,

The entry ,

Bank A/c Dr.

To Sales A/c.

is an entry for cash sales made. It is appropriate, provided the sales you have booked are not credit sales and you have not received cheques subsequently from debtors.

Vijay Ji

Lots of time i also face this problem.  as some of my clients don't save deposit slips.  you can do one thing if you recive cheque against one bill you can find the name of party by matching the amount with bill.  If it is not possible then do other thing.  Just creat a new account which you will use as a custmor account and debit them with sales account after that debit the bank and credit the account you have created for this purpose.  for example normally in case of card swap what we do

Dr. Credit Card Sales

Cr. Sales Account

(Being goods sold vide Bill No 1 and payment recived by card)

and after reciving that amount after settlement

Dr. Bank Account

Dr. Bank Charges (On Card Swap)

Cr. Credit Card Sales

(Being amount recived after deducting Merchandise Fee)

But first ask custmor for account statement if it is books of stokiest of distributors.
