I need help with the Post References of the Sales and Cash Journal as well as posting them to the General ledger accounts in the End of Month Posting:

Now that you have finished recording all of the transactions for the month of June, you are ready to perform the end of month posting procedure. The purpose of this end of month posting is to transfer the totals from the special journals to the appropriate general ledger accounts so that the balances in those ledger accounts reflect all of the transactions that occurred throughout the period.

Instructions for end of month posting

1)Total the columns in the special journals. Record the amount in the Total row of each journal.

2)Post the totals of the columns in the special journals to their corresponding ledger account. To confirm that the posting has been performed, a posting reference is recorded in the last row of the special journals. If the total of a column is not required to be posted, you need to record an X in the post reference field for that column.

3)Record the final unadjusted balance of each ledger account in the Unadjusted Balance row of each ledger, even for ledgers with a balance of zero. Although each ledger already has a running balance, the Unadjusted Balance row must still be filled out in order to receive full points.
