Thanks for reaching out to the Community, dbuswell.
You can try using your Accounts payable aging detail and/or Accounts payable aging summary reports to show the data you're looking for. You'll want to be aware that QuickBooks tracks all of your option balances for each account in an Opening Balance Equity account. This makes it easy to go back and look at what you entered later on.
If you find that you need to edit an opening balance, you'll need to edit its start date and balance if transactions will be added that are older than your opening balance. This sets a new starting point and prevents QuickBooks from counting transactions twice.
Here's how it's done:
- In the left navigation bar, go to Transactions, then Chart of accounts.
- Locate your account and click its View register option.
- Find the opening balance entry. Sort your date column to show the oldest entries first.
- Choose your opening balance entry.
- Edit its date, then the amount. If needed, hit Edit to make your changes.
- Select Save.
In the event you're trying to edit an opening balance while reconciling an account in QuickBooks with your bank or credit card statement, you can refer to our Fix issues the first time you reconcile an account article.
I've also included a couple detailed resources about using QuickBooks which may come in handy moving forward:
