In the pack: ChatGPT, Claude & Gemini Prompts for Finance and Accounting Professionals
Journal Entry Description and Support Note
Prompt
Business context: {{BUSINESS_CONTEXT}}
Entry details (what happened, dates, amounts, accounts affected): {{ENTRY_DETAILS}}
Reporting framework and jurisdiction: {{FRAMEWORK}}
Reviewer audience: {{REVIEWER}}
Produce:
1. A one-line journal description under 100 characters that says what, why, and period.
2. A support note covering the business reason, the calculation with every step shown, the accounts debited and credited in words, whether the entry is recurring, one-off, or reversing, and the document that supports it (named generically, such as "supplier invoice").
3. Two questions a sceptical reviewer would ask, with the answer I should be ready to give.
Rules: use only the facts and amounts provided, state the accounting treatment and standard you assume, and mark anything you could not confirm from my input as "to verify". Don't make the entry sound more certain than the evidence. Never fill a gap in the facts with an assumed amount; list it under "to verify".
