Viewing the Ledger
How to navigate the ledger pages in the admin panel to view accounts, journal entries, and SPV financial status.
The admin panel includes a dedicated Ledger section in the main navigation. This is where you go to inspect the financial state of any SPV, trace individual transactions, and verify that everything adds up.
Search
Every ledger page includes a search bar at the top. Type an account code (e.g., 1000.SPV-42), account name, journal entry ID, description, or SPV name to jump directly to it. The search works across accounts, journal entries, and SPVs from any ledger page.
Ledger Accounts
Navigate to Ledger > Accounts to see every account in the system. Each account represents a financial bucket — cash held by an SPV, an investor's receivable, fee income, and so on.
What you see on the index page
- Code — the unique identifier for the account (e.g.,
1000.SPV-42for an SPV's cash account) - Name — a human-readable label
- Type — asset, liability, revenue, expense, or equity
- Sub-type — a more specific classification like "cash," "receivable," or "suspense"
- Balance — the current balance in dollars
- Scope — which SPV (or "Platform" for platform-level accounts)
Filtering and scopes
Use the filters on the right to narrow by account type, sub-type, or SPV. The scope tabs at the top let you quickly jump to assets, liabilities, accounts with a balance, or zero-balance accounts.
Account detail page
Click any account to see its full details and a table of the most recent 50 ledger entries that affected it. Each entry links to its parent journal entry for full context.
The detail page also shows:
- Quick Links — jump to the parent SPV, view all sibling accounts, or navigate to the linked investment or virtual account
- Related Accounts — other accounts in the same SPV, so you can quickly compare balances across cash, receivable, capital, and suspense accounts
Recomputing a balance
If you suspect an account's cached balance is stale, click Recompute Balance on the account's detail page. A confirmation dialog shows the current balance and explains what the operation does. The balance is recalculated from all ledger entries and the cached value is updated.
Journal Entries
Navigate to Ledger > Journal Entries to see every financial event recorded in the system. A journal entry is a group of balanced debit/credit lines that were recorded together.
What you see on the index page
- Date — when the event took effect
- Type — what kind of event it was (payment received, commitment created, reversal, manual adjustment, etc.)
- Description — a short explanation of what happened
- Source — whether it was created by the system, an admin, or a migration
- Amount — the total debits (which always equal the total credits)
- Reversed — whether this entry has been reversed by a later correction
Filtering and scopes
Filter by entry type, source, SPV, or date range. Use the scope tabs to see only unreversed entries, reversals, system-generated entries, or admin-created entries.
Journal entry detail page
Click any journal entry to see its full details and the individual debit/credit lines. The page shows:
- Which accounts were affected and by how much
- Whether the entry is balanced (it always should be)
- The related object (payment order, investment, etc.)
- Metadata and the idempotency key
- Breadcrumb navigation — if the entry is scoped to an SPV, a breadcrumb trail links back to the SPV and its accounts
- Related Journal Entries — if this entry was reversed, links to the reversal (and vice versa). If other entries share the same related object, they're listed here too.
- Related Object Details — if the entry is linked to a payment order, the payment's amount, direction, status, and method are shown inline so you don't have to navigate away
Ledger Panel on SPV Pages
Each SPV's admin page includes a Ledger panel showing all of that SPV's accounts organized as a collapsible tree, grouped by account type (Assets, Liabilities, Equity, Revenue, Expenses). Each group shows the number of accounts and a subtotal. Click a group to expand or collapse it.
Individual account rows show the code (linked to the account detail page), name, balance (color-coded: green for positive, red for negative), and last computation time.
A net balance summary at the bottom shows the total across all accounts.
The panel includes a Recompute All Balances button that refreshes every account balance for the SPV at once, with a confirmation dialog showing the SPV name and account count.
Ledger Entries on Investment Pages
Each investment's admin page includes a Ledger Account Summary showing the investor's receivable, capital, and cash balances with links to each account. Below the summary, a Ledger Entries panel lists all journal entries that affected that investor's accounts. Each entry shows a link to any related payment order, making it easy to trace the full path from payment to accounting record.
Journal Entry Panel on Payment Orders
Each payment order's detail page includes a Ledger Journal Entries panel that shows every journal entry created for that payment. For each entry, you see the entry type, date, balanced status, and the full table of account lines (debits and credits). This connects the payment pipeline to the accounting record in detail, making it easy to verify that a payment was properly recorded.
