You know the amount that's missing

If you know the amount that's missing, run the Year-to-date Ledger. For example, the Balance Sheet or Trial Balance is out of balance by a certain amount.

  1. Go to General Ledger, Reports, Year-to-date Ledger.
  2. Select Modify date range and enter the same period as the financial statement.
  3. If you ran the financial statement for a specific prefix, use Conditions to limit the ledger to that prefix.
  4. Preview the report and check for accounts with an ending balance that make up the missing amount.

You don't know the amount that's missing

  1. Print a Base Account list:
    1. Go to General Ledger, Reports, Lists, Base Accounts.
    2. Print this report.
  2. Print the statement design details:
    1. Go to Financial Statement Designer, File, Print, Statement Design.
    2. Select the design with missing accounts and click Open.

      • Each Amount Instruction line with an account assigned specifies the account ranges under Amount Instruction Account Ranges
      • Note the accumulator name assigned to the Amount Instruction line, if used
    4. Compare the accounts assigned with the Base Account list and note any accounts missing from the design.
