Hi:

Unless you have a debit and credit field on each record, don't you have to have a Balance Account Number for a journal entry?

Thanks!

John

    There is a Balance Account Type and Balance Account No. available.  The use of the debit and credit field do not exclude the use of the Balance Account fields.

    if you are unable to see this field then

    1. Go to setting icon and then choose personalize

    Is the answer "yes", in that you have to have a Balance Account Number in your journal entries?

    Yes there is a field. Some use it and some put the balancing entry on a second line.  BC gives you a choice.
