Hi Gowrav,

There is two options to enter opening balances.

1. Make JV :
  • Debit asset accounts and credit "Temporary Account (Liabilities)"
  • Credit liability accounts and debit "Temporary Account (Assets)"
  • If you closed balance sheet properly in last year (Assets=Liabilities) and you are entering all the balances in a single JV, then you can ignore entering against "Temporary Account".
  • Mark "Is Opening" field as "Yes" and set "Aging Date" as actual posting date in past year (optional: applicable for customers and suppliers for aging report)
  • You can post the entry on last year date as well, in that case do not need to mark "Is Opening" field as "Yes"
  • Submit the JV

2. Use Voucher Import Tool to upload opening balance
  • Download template
  • Enter the data as per instructions in the template
  • Upload the csv file
  • It will create a JV automatically

Regards,
Nabin Hait
