Get 50% OFF QuickBooks for 3 months*
Buy nowHi,
I am a new user to QBO and first time asking here. I went into the system to link one of our AMEX accounts.
When I did, I selected the incorrect date so therefore my beginning balance is off. When I go to the chart of accounts, I have attached a copy of the register I am not sure what to do from here and I just do not want to mess anything else any worse. Please if you could provide me a step by step even if its visual that is great so I can fix.
Thanks so much!
