Balance Sheet - Equity

Good day, mhcostigan.

You'll want to create a Journal Entry to offset or adjust those unnecessary transactions that are causing the balance under your Equity account. However, Balance sheet reports can be tricky that's why I recommend asking help from your bookkeeper or accountant for proper guidance. If you don’t have one, we can help you find an accountant.

Here's how to create a Journal Entry:

1. Go to the Accountant menu.
2. Choose Make General Journal Entries.
3. Fill in the necessary information.
4. Click Save & Close.
   

Here's a good reference to learn more about creating a journal entry in QuickBooks Desktop.

If you wish to review the entries, you can do so by going to the bottom pane of the Make General Journal Entries window.
