Need help in creating ledger app

I want to create a very simple app to create ledgers and display report.

For exmple, User will input

Date,Name, Debit/Credit Amount

and on search function for a particular Name user can print report

Date, Debit, Credit, Balance

I think that will be simple ledger to be created.

I am very new to kodular so just need your suggestion to some video tutorial or some text tutoriasl where i can learn that simple way to do that.

It’s not about being new to Kodular.
You need to know algorithm and programming logic.
Do you make a program in any programming language?

You will need to know how this routine works outside of a system (software) and you can try to do so.
Variables
constants
Accountants
accumulators
Conditional Deviations
Repetition Structures
Data storage (database)

You Tube will be a help and research here in the community.

You will have to know how many screens the app will need.
Usually each screen 1 or 2 routines
Entry routine for entries in the ledger : what will need to be released ? Date , Value , Description ? What components will you need for this input data? And after the user enters the data, what needs to be done?
And to search the entries of a certain date?
And change any entries in the ledger?
And delete any entry in the ledger?

A very good way to learn App Inventor or Kodular is to read the free Inventor’s Manual here in the AI2 free online eBook App Inventor 2 Book: Create Your Own Android Apps … the links are at the bottom of the Web page. The book ‘teaches’ users how to program with AI2 blocks.
There is a free programming course here Course In A Box and the aia files for the projects in the book are here: App Inventor 2 Book: Create Your Own Android Apps
How to do a lot of basic things with App Inventor are described here: How do you...? .

Also do the tutorials Tutorials for MIT App Inventor to learn the basics of App Inventor, then try something and follow the Top 5 Tips: How to learn App Inventor

You need to read @Taifun Taifun’s tips Forms are like IDE Desktop,(VB6 DELPHI VISUAL FOX PRO drag and drop ( textbox or edit box - no matter the component name) So you need to decide how to store the data - on the smartphone, on the web? On the smartphone you can use SQLITE, on the web you can use relational or non-relational databases (firebase for example) With relational databases you can look for examples here in the community: Taifun mysql or Juan mysql. These are examples with the Kodular blocks and PHP script needed to execute the INSERTS UPDATE DELETES SQL.
