    Hi SWI-Accounts 

     

    If the out of balance goes all the way back to the start of the file, this would generally indicate that the opening balance on that account has been changed. The only way to double check this would be to restore a backup or two from different points in the past and checking the opening balance of that account.

     

    If you were wanting to resolve it using a journal entry to remove the out of balance on the account, I recommend speaking with your accountant over how that journal entry should look. Do note that this will only correct the out of balance for after the journal is recorded. If you ran the report for after before the journal entry was recorded the out of balance will still exist.
