Wrong Begining Balance Prevents Reconcilliation

Consider a trial balance. Do one for quicken when you changed. do one
for gc. A trial balance is just a chart of accounts with the balance in
each account. You will find the 2 accounts (minimum) that have
different balances from the quicken balances. I use a separate
transaction for opening balances, as opposed to putting the amount in
the account when it is set up. Remember when gc is out of balance it
puts opposing amount in a special account.
