    Hi campaignr 

     

    Sorry to see that no one has replied to you yet. If you go to Accounting>>Chart of accounts>>open that account, is there an Opening balance?

     

    If you're still having problems with this can you please send me screenshots in a private message.

Update: I have checked every transaction and the calculated closing balance is wrong. Somehow the calculated closing balance for dates pre-dating the opening of the bank account is -$9,099.64. Other than that error, all the bank transactions reconcile. Why would MYOB calculate a negative closing balance for dates prior to the first bank transaction? How can this erroneous calculated closing balance be fixed?

Looking for something else?
