My Net Profit (Loss) is always not equal to my Retained Earnings, why please? What can I do. A screenshot is attached for easy understanding. Thank you.
It looks like your ‘Manager’ start date is 1/1/2024.
The starting balances that you entered on this date will have generated entries from these to the Retained Earnings account. Create a separate Capital account in the Balance Sheet under Equity and use a Journal Entry to transfer the balance in your Retained Earnings account at start date to this a separate Capital account.

In addition to @AJD why did you rename and move Retained earnings from Equity
to Liability
? Note that Retained earnings are accumulated net profits not distributed as dividends and are part of Equity in the accounting equation.
