To correct your beginning balance, recreate the deleted expense and manually mark it as reconciled ("R") to restore your historical balance. Here is how:

 

  1. Go to the Gear icon.
  2. Select Audit log, then find the transaction to view its exact details and recreate it.
  3. Go to Chart of accounts.
  4. Find the expense transaction you created and select Account history.
  5. Mark it as R, then click Save.
