At the end of your year, you will have to produce your trial balance report for your accountant. This report groups all the general ledger entries.

Among the options available to you, indicate the correct time interval, then click on “Display”. If necessary, check the boxes to customize the display of the balances.

The trial balance report is now created. To ensure that your organization has its accounting entries in order, the balance in the “Debit” column should be the same as that in the “Credit” column. If this is not the case, as in the following example, you will need to verify that all your invoices and disbursements are balanced. The blog post“Verification” explains how to proceed.
