Why is the starting balance a debit? In other words, why did the customer owe you money on the date you first began using Manager?

Okay. These are balances we are transfering from the old accounting software. We are not just starting the business

Thank you


The attached Statement shows the starting balance of a Debtor reporting as credit.

If the customer owes you money on the starting date, you have to enter the unpaid invoices - the credit field is only if the customer has a credit balance.

It is all explained in the guide

Thank you all
