I am using GnuCash to maintain an organization's records. GnuCash is being used for 2004. Last year, the records were kept manually.<BR>
<BR>
I have one checking account transaction that originally was not entered into GnuCash because the check was written in 2003. However, it cleared in 2004. When I attempted to balance the bank statement for the month that it cleared, of course I was off by that amount. I entered the transaction, and found other totals off by the same amount. <BR>
<BR>
I have a "Brought Forward" account and have tried to jiggle numbers to make everything balance, but I'm not doing something correctly. What is the approved way, from an accounting standpoint, to handle such a transaction?<BR>
<BR>
Thanks,<BR>
Alan<BR>
