I'm here to help you balance your Chart of Accounts (COA) and Balance Sheet, Yunke8849.
The differences you've experienced could be the reason for the fluctuating exchange rates between the Mexican Peso and Chinese yuan renminbi (CNY).
To fix this, we'll have to create a holding account for the discrepancy caused by the fluctuating exchange rates and create a Journal entry (JE) to move the balance to the holding account.
Here's how to create a holding account:
As for creating a Journal entry to move the balances, I would recommend consulting with your accountant about this process for further assistance.
Additionally, you can refer to this article about personalising your reports: Customise reports in QuickBooks Online.

I have created a foreign exchange gain&loss account, when I move the balance to this account, it shows an nil balance on balance sheet, however, the balance in chart of accounts shows an negative amount. Would that be possible to have both nil amount on balance sheet and chart of account?
Thanks for responding, yunke. Yes. It is possible to have a Nil amount on both the Balance Sheet report and the Chart of Accounts. I recommend you consider consulting your accountant for proper recording using a journal entry and the appropriate account.

Could you advise more detail about how to adjust it?
