When I went to print my financial statement, it told me my trail balance was out of balance. How did this happen??? So I clicked ont the link and it took me thro the whole Chart of Accounts Journal Synchronization test and Integrity Checks.
I went thro the whole thing where I go back to Period 1 and do all the Integrity Checks, then I checked my trial balance and it was still out of balance, so I went back to the Integrity check and selected the journal balances box and ok, then I did the integrity check again selected G/L Balances box and ok... this test will forcibly put the system back into balance by moving the offset into the Equity Retained Earnings account.. but it took that amount that I was off (on the trial balance difference) and deducted it from my Retained Earnings account. and also lessened my Total Liabilities & Capital. It does say I can do a general journal entry... but I'm confused should I? and if I do what do I credit and debit, what accounts?
