Posting is the routine mechanical act of copying or transferring the amounts in the general journal to the accounts in the general ledger. The amounts posted should be the amounts and to the accounts shown in the journal entry. Manual posting is more prone to errors than in a computerized accounting system. An error in the journal entry can be complicated further by another error during the posting process. In a computerized accounting system, posting to the account is automatically completed as soon as the transaction is entered.
