Circulation Ledgers
Read-only financial inquiry and Agent Ledger Statement guide.
Read-only financial history
Ledger rows are generated by governed source transactions such as Opening Balance, Bills, Receipts, Credit Notes and Debit Notes. The Ledger screen itself does not create, edit or delete financial entries.
Dr and Cr balance
For normal dues, Dr means the Agent owes money and Cr means the balance is in the party’s favour. Debit moves the signed running balance toward/more Dr; Credit moves it toward/more Cr. The UI shows the absolute amount with Dr/Cr.
Ledgers list
The list can contain both Agent and Customer Accounts. Click a row to open that Account Ledger. Deposit is displayed separately from the normal running dues balance.

Scope and date rules
Selecting Agent creates Agent scope; District without Agent creates District scope; neither creates Edition Center scope. Blank From/To use Financial Year boundaries. Entered dates must remain inside that Financial Year and From cannot be after To.
Statement Opening Balance
For a custom From Date, the statement Opening Balance is the Account balance immediately before that effective From Date. This keeps the statement financially continuous instead of beginning at zero.

Safe reporting behavior
Download is reporting-only and does not change Account balances or source documents. Formal statements recalculate displayed running balance in report order and enforce a dataset size limit; narrow the date or scope when needed.
Security and manual-entry protection
Account-specific Ledger reads are validated through Account access. Unscoped global Ledger reading is blocked and direct manual Ledger creation is rejected; governed source services remain the only writers.
Troubleshooting
- Empty Ledger: Account can exist before any posted Ledger rows.
- Reference not clickable: no reviewed source-detail route exists for that transaction type.
- Balance differs from Bill: Ledger is the overall Account position and Credit/Debit Notes can affect it without rewriting one Bill.
- District ZIP disabled: use full Edition Center scope.
- No data: check Agent Status, Edition Center, dates and scope.
- Too many rows: narrow date/District/Agent.
