Topic: openning balance

Hi

have installed the FA and everything works fine .
I need to make an opening balance to the bank account and i dont know how to do it.

I did create bank account and now the problem is how can i post initial opening balance.
do i need to use the "quick entry Link"or "GL accounts link" this one is real confusing to me.
Please need your help here.

Thanks

Re: openning balance

Enter one Journal Voucher with all Balance Sheet Entries (amounts) in detail dated the beginning of the Fiscal Year (close of last Balance Sheet).

Re: openning balance

I think for bank account should be in Debit, and Equity account on the Credit.
You can ask your accountant for more accurate answer.
