Tell me about a time when an incorrect journal entry distorts the ledger balance. What did you do?

I first confirmed the facts and contained the immediate impact. Next, I reviewed the approved journal voucher and ledger detail and coordinated the action to review account coding, narration, amount, date, and approval. After verifying the result, I summarized the root cause, preventive control, owner, and follow-up plan so the issue would not recur.
