    Hi ZoeO1 

     

    In the Build Items window, the 'Out of balance' field at the bottom shows the difference amount between the total debits and total credits entered, it will always be a positive figure if there's any difference between the debits and credits. The calculation is based on the 'Amount' column figures, not the unit cost column. 

     

    A better way to view the figures on both side of the transaction would be recapping the transaction by using Ctrl + R, which lists the debits and credits in separate columns, from that you can total them together to work it out further.

     

    I hope this helps. If you have any further questions please feel free to let us know.
