Automate pending entries under your Accounting setup to help owners avoid overdrafts.
Once enabled, expenses and journal entries that would cause an owner's balance to go negative will be created as "pending" with an "insufficient funds" status. When an owner has enough funds, these pending expenses and journal entries will automatically be recognized.
Learn how to manage expenses with insufficient funds.
Follow the steps below to set up automatic pending entries.
