Andrew, What do you mean, you can't fix the opening balance? If you are talking about your "Opening Balance" transaction, that is just another transaction, and of course you can edit that. (The recent discussion about reversing transactions was about a technicality for business books, and not necessary for personal books) If you are talking about the "Starting Balance" when you reconcile each month, take a look in the Guide at 4.4.1, and read the note there about how to handle that. Either way, it's a one time fix. David

In two of my accounts (one asset; one liability) I committed a transgression; I attempted to fix a reconciled transaction. Since then, I have to put in a "fix" to balance each account. I add a bogus transaction; reconcile; and then reverse the transaction. Essentially, I need to be able to reset the opening balance in order to fix this. I know changing the opening balance is not an option; is there an alternative so I can stop using the "bogus transaction" method?
