I have a question for opening balance on accounts- is it possible to just have the starting balance on an account without having to affiliate it with another account? And are opening balances really equity? Doesn't equity mean the worth of your business? So if you started quick books with negative worth then your business will always have negative worth? I just don't think the starting balance (at the time you started quickbooks) is a good representation of your companies worth. Is there another account you can use for starting balance instead of Open Balance Equity? Because I know Open Balance Equity shows up on the Balance Sheet and I can't figure out how to zero out that negative amount from OBE. Even if I transfer it to another account then another account will be negative. How can I make it so that the OPENING BALANCES of my accounts don't show up on the Balance Sheet Report?
