# Journal

> Create and manage journal entries for a business

## Overview

The Journal displays running debits and credits for all accounting transactions. While business owner-operators don't typically access this view, it allows bookkeepers to:

* Review debits/credits in manner that bookkeepers are used to
* Add manual journal entries, which can be required in extreme edge cases
* View a Trial Balance report

## Embedding the Journal

To initialize the Tight Embedded experience in your React project, follow the instructions on [Embedding Tight's white-labeled UI](/embeddable-ui/react/patterns/embedding).

Below is an example embedding of the Journal:

```TSX JournalDash.tsx theme={null}
import { Journal, Tight } from "@tight-embedded/react";
import "@tight-embedded/react/index.css";

function JournalDash({ accessToken }) {
    return (
      <Tight environment="SANDBOX" accessToken={accessToken} >
        <Journal />
      </Tight>
    )
}
```

## Props

<ParamField body={"filters"} type={"object"} post={["optional"]}>
  The set of filters to apply to the dashboard.

  Passing in a value for this prop turns this into a controlled component. As such, you must also pass the
  `onChangeFilters` prop to adjust the filters for user input.
