Introducing Subledgers: Report on Multiple Balance Types
Subledgers allow you to segregate balances by flow of funds or by each of your customers. This means you can create subledgers to track individual transactions related to specific areas of your business, such as accounts payable and accounts receivable. If you’re a platform, you also can create subledgers for each of your customers — giving you a real-time ledger that tracks the activity for each customer so you can run sophisticated treasury management while keeping detailed financial records.Subledgers Guide
