Creating a new bank statement when there is already legacy ledger entries

Hi all,

I have recently absorbed some bank accounts into my remit. I have an issue whereby, historically all cash transactions have been posted direct to ledger, however, I would like to start using the E-Bank statements function to align these bank accounts to current practice.

I have created a journal entry to bring in the opening balance i.e., to match the closing position for all historic entries and uploaded a bank statement for a specific start date. To post the statement, the system requires the journal entry to be matched which in turn creates a balance in the IMPORTED & RECON. LINES section of the statement, these balances should then mirror the STATEMENT ENDING BALANCE and is a prerequisite to allow me to post the statement.

The problem I have is, I can't match the journal entry to anything - I don't have a statement with transactions to match my opening balance journal to.

Is there a way to clear the journal entry without the need to match?

I'm using Dynamics NAV 2017

Many thanks
