The sales journal is only used to record sales of merchandise on account. A unique feature of the sales journal is that accounts receivable debits and credits share the same column. A column also often exists to record sales tax payable. Any sales returns or allowances granted for goods sold on credit require an entry to the general journal. If a cash refund is given, the transaction should be recorded to the cash payments journal.
