Here's how to correct a balance forward;

 

1. From the left menu, open the Sales tab and then Customers 

2. Select the customer's name that has an incorrect Balance Forward

3. From the New transaction ▼dropdown menu, select Statement

4. Within the statement: make sure the type is Balance Forward

5. Enter a Start Date that occurs before the customer's first transaction

6. Hit Save.

I've tried this mutilple times using Google to ask and help me solve this but this action doesn't fix a Balance Forward of $0.00 when its been paid on time. Are there other ways to manually fix this?
