Well, make completely sure. With the accounts page open, select
View>Filter By... and make sure that all of the account types are
selected on the “Account Type" tab and that Show hidden accounts is
selected on the “Other” tab. There’s another way to get there as well:
You can select Current Assets and select Edit>Open Subaccounts, which
will open a register showing all of the transactions from Current
Assets and all of its sub accounts in the normal order. That might help
you see the transactions that drive it to a negative balance.
I did that, I couldn't find any negative transactions (only a tiny one
which I already know it). But I noticed most transactions don't reflect
any balance while others did, does this related to my problem?
How much is the discrepancy? IOW, if you add up all of the (positive)
totals showing in the first-level sub accounts and then add the
opposite of the (negative) total showing in Current Assets, what’s the
difference?
The discrepancy is big because when I calculate all my assets manually
(multi-currencies) they did match the sub-accounts.
Are there any transactions in Current Assets? Being a placeholder
prevents you from adding transactions from the register, but there are
other ways that transactions can get into it, including being
transferred there when you delete a sub-account. Double clicking on it
won’t work because it’s a placeholder so you have to use Edit>Open
Account or pick Open from the context menu when Current Assets is
selected.
When I disabled "Placeholder" feature for "Current Assets" and "Assets"
I found both of them are empty.
THIS IS REALLY STRANGE I DID NOT FACE ANY PROBLEM WITH GNC BEFORE
ALTHOUGH I USE IT SINCE YEARS AGO
Thanks a lot John for the patience.
