True.

When you have more than one account debited in a transaction, the order in which you enter them typically does not matter as long as the overall entries are correct and balanced. Accounting principles focus on the accuracy and completeness of the entries rather than their sequence. Therefore, entering the debited accounts in any order should not result in losing points. However, it’s always a good practice to follow any specific guidelines provided by your instructor or accounting software to ensure consistency.
