Journal:

A journal is a chronological record of transactions and is the first place that transactions are recorded. It is often referred to as a book of original entry. Each entry records the date, the accounts effected and their reference number, an explanation of the transaction, and the debit/credit effect on the accounts named. Information from the Journal is later posted to each account.
