The adjustment journal (transaction number prefix AJ) is a many-to-many transaction that is used to make complex adjustments to the balances on multiple accounts at the same time. AJs are typically posted to correct accounting errors that cannot be easily fixed using other mechanisms.

 

 

This type of transaction debits and credits the accounts you specify, however the sum of these must be zero. The suspense controlled account is used to post the resultant transaction, however the activity has a nil net effect on the balance of the suspense account.
