Every operation (sale, purchase, payment, expense) results in an accounting entry. Omamori automatically records most entries from your invoices and payments; manual entry remains useful for miscellaneous operations.

Record an entry
- Open the Accounting menu, then Journal entries.
- Click Create and choose the relevant journal (purchases, sales, bank, cash, miscellaneous operations).
- Enter the date and the label of the operation.
- Add the lines: one account on the debit side, one on the credit side, in line with the SYSCOHADA chart of accounts.
- Check that total debit equals total credit, then post the entry.
SYSCOHADA reminder: an entry is always balanced — the sum of debits equals the sum of credits. Omamori prevents you from validating an unbalanced entry.
While an entry is in draft, you can edit it freely. Once posted, it is permanently recorded in your accounts.
