Cash in hand with negative balance

When i receive money for my petty cash, it appears as negative balance on cash in hand, what have done wrong on the process, or where i am supposed to receive money for office expenditure

Please explain what steps you are actually taking. Did you issue a receipt and select the Petty Cash bank account?

yes i did so i went to receipts module and receive it on the petty cash i have created

Please show a screenshot of the receipt edit screen.

If the money is received from a Customer, this should be a Receivable account, if it is received from your other cash or bank account, then use Inter Account Transfer.

Thanks, taken and resolved
