Hi there, cj12.
Let’s figure things out together and ensure your Balance Sheet report gets corrected.
First off, I want to make sure we’re on the same page so I can give you the accurate resolution. Did you enter two initial balances (the manually entered and downloaded as Transfer) in the Opening Balance Equity account?

Here’s how to remove:
Once done, re-open the Balance Sheet report to verify if it’s now showing the accurate data.

You should now be able to get back up and running again. Don’t hesitate to let me know if you have other questions. I’ll be around.
