Beginning Balance in new fund

Upgrading from V8 to V9, I am reorganizing and creating new funds for our Church departments. The first fund went well although quite laborious. I used the Accounting Setup Assistant to create the first fund which allowed/asked for beginning balances. The second fund did not use the Setup Assistant and my checkbook beginning balance is zero and I cannot change it.

In QuickBooks, one inputs the beginning balance when the account is created. How do I input the beginning balance in PC+?

Thanks for your help.

Input the following entry in Fund Accounting to establish the beginning checking account balance in the new fund:

Debit 02-1110-000 Checking Account
Credit 02-3110-000 Unrestricted Net Assets
