EUR - USD discrepancy in Balance Sheet due to EUR denominated bank account

Hi All,

So I have a EUR denominated Transferwise account in my QBO and the balance is 0 as on 30 Nov 2022. However, my USD balance sheet reflects a balance of USD 86.97. How do I fix it to reflect 0 in both places. Assumed differences would be automatically hitting currency gains.

Hi there, @tanya_93. Thank you for sharing your first post in the Community forum. I'm here to help you fix the variance of your accounts.

 

The discrepancies can be affected by the exchange rates' gains and losses. If you'd like to zero out the 86.97 USD amount on your Balance Sheet report, you can record a journal entry to offset the difference. Here's how:

 

  1. Sign in to your QuickBooks Online (QBO) account.
  2. Go to the +New icon, then Journal Entry.
  3.  Fill in the details, then save.

 

I suggest seeking help from your accountant while tracking the transaction for the correct debit and credit accounts. If you don't have one, you can find available experts from this link: Build a stronger business with a QuickBooks Certified ProAdvisor.

 

I'm adding this article for more hints while tracking journal entries with our system: Create journal entries in QuickBooks Online.

The bank account is 0. Any entries passed will appear as a negative value (-86.97) in the account. This amount directly appears in USD Balance Sheet.
