How can we manage accounts in single entry system?

Under the double entry system of book-keeping, both aspects of every transaction are recorded, i.e. one on the debit side and the other on the credit side. Under the single entry system of bookkeeping, both aspects of every transaction are not recorded in the books of accounts. Under this system, the personal accounts of the debtors and creditors are maintained. The usual subsidiary books maintained under the double entry system of book-keeping are also maintained under the single entry system, but the postings are made from these subsidiary books of those entries which affect personal accounts. Real and nominal accounts are not maintained under this system. Since only one aspect of every transaction is usually recorded under this system, therefore, the system 1s called 'single entry system'. It should be noted that single entry system is not any particular system of book-keeping, but rather the double entry system in an incomplete and disjointed form.
