# Manually Create Funding and Payroll Journal Entries

[Funding journal entries and payroll journal entries](/doc/docs/funding-and-payroll-journal-entries) associated with [pay runs](/doc/docs/workforce-pay-runs) can be manually created after associated [paycheck runs](/doc/docs/paycheck-runs) are created.

Follow these steps to manually create funding journal entries or payroll journal entries:

**1. Navigate to the [**Paycheck Runs page**](/doc/docs/workforce-paycheck-runs-page)**.****

> If there are no unprinted paychecks associated with the paycheck run, the +Create button for funding journal entries will be disabled.

### Manually Creating Journal Entries in Accounting

All [GL account mappings](/doc/docs/workforce-settings-gl-account-mapping) for earnings and withholding types associated with a paycheck run must be mapped in order to create a journal entry from the Paycheck Runs page.

If GL account mappings are missing, or if the desired journal entry should not be linked, journal entries can be manually [created within Accounting](/doc/docs/new-journal-entry). When created in Accounting, the journal entry will not be linked to the paycheck run.

Journal entry (JE) Record posted to the General Ledger to document financial activity.
