Occasionally, balances in my investment accounts are off by small amounts. In previous versions of Navigator, I merely went to the account balance screen for that account and "forced" it to the balance on the statement. It appears I can no longer do that. How am I to correct these errors and "force" a balance?

FN has an option that allows changes to the balances for accounts. Remember, when you makes changes to the balances of accounts in the Asset and Liability (A/L) screen, there is no audit trail.

It is recommended that you post a journal entry to make corrections to your balances for tracking purposes.

Please see the onscreen Help system index under Balances for accounts for more information.

If you want to be able to manually adjust balances for accounts without an audit trail:

  1. Open the FN entity.
  2. Back up your data files.
  3. Select Investments | Investment & Account Options.
  4. Select Balances for Accounts (a check mark appears) in the Allow Changes To: option box.

This method of "fixing" balances is not recommended, again, due to the lack of an audit trail. A journal entry is recommended to adjust balances.
