Putting a prepayment in using journals:

Dr Prepayments account
Cr Relevant expense account

with the amount that is pre-paid at the end of the month/year.

THEN

Reverse this on the very next day, i.e.

Dr Relevant expense account
Cr Prepayments account

with whatever you put in to start with.

The reason for this second journal is to put you back in the position the accounts were in when the payment was put through.

You may have to repeat the journals (with different values) if there is some element of prepayment left at the next month end.
