Trial Balance vs. Account Activity Balance
Posted: Fri Mar 27, 2009 6:09 pm
Why would I see a balance on the Trial Balance, but when I pull the Account Activity report for that same account (Net asset), it says I have a zero balance?
Shouldn't they agree?
I am trying to "undo" entries that were made for a temporarily restricted release. I have made all the entries to transfer them to "Pass Through Contributions", but still have one outstanding entry that I am trying to figure out how to post.
It's for $75.00. I need to credit 4814, which is an income account, to bring it to a zero balance.
The net asset account has a zero balance right now on the account activity report, but a $75.00 balance on the trial balance report.
I think this is the correct offset, but I am puzzled why the balance shows
on the Trial Balance, but not on the account activity. If I make this entry, it will show $75.00 on the Account Activity and zero on the Trial Balance.
Can you help me?
Thank you!
