Client trial balance

Client trial balance

This prints a report showing outstanding balances on particular Client or all Clients. This assists you in checking which Client trips are out of balance. The Client Trial Balance should be run in Summary once a week and the Grand total should agree to the General Ledger Client Control account for the same date. If this does not agree then reconciliation between the two accounts needs to be done to find the discrepancy. One reason may be due to a mis-posting from a list/update. At the end of the month a Detailed Client Trial Balance should be run so you have a record of the Client transactions at that time.
