Opening balance

Hi
please can you tell me show to record an opening/brought forward bank balance as we have started using this software from the beginning of Jan 2010, and how to record payments recieved and paid to the last years accounts as there is a cross over and no invoices/purchases created in the new accounts etc

Hello Zoe,

You will need to do two things:

  1. Create Invoices and Purchase Invoices dated in 2009 to represent the opening balances for some of your customers and suppliers. The easiest way to do this is to click 'Edit Balance' in the New Customer or New Supplier window.

  2. Go to the Accounts list and double-click on the Cheque Account to set the opening balance.

Cheers,
