SUB LEDGER (Depatmental Operating Accounts)An account in the Sub Ledger has a non-zero first digit (eg. 3-3XXXX) and reflects all budget, revenue, expense and encumbrance activity for the current year. Except for a very few cases, all requisitions should be prepared using Sub Ledger accounts.GENERAL LEDGERAn account in the General Ledger has zero as its first digit (eg. 0-3XXXX) and reflects the cumulative status to date of the account. The most important information on the General Ledger account statement is the fund balance account control (3X00, where X represents the second digit of the account number). This amount is the cumulative account balance. If the amount is a credit (negative figure) there is a surplus in the account. If the amount is a debit (positive figure) there is a deficit in the account.
