QuickBooks Journal Entry API

JournalEntry is a transaction in which:There are at least one pair of lines, a debit and a credit, called distribution lines. Each distribution line has an account from the Chart of Accounts. Query the Account resource for a listing of the Chart of Accounts. The total of the debit column equals the total of the credit column. When you record a transaction with a JournalEntry object, the QuickBooks Online UI labels the transaction as JRNL in the register and as General Journal on reports that list transactions.
