Manually Adding an Entry on the Working Trial Balance (Desktop)
What it is: The ability to type a new account row directly into the Working Trial Balance after the initial trial balance import, without re-importing the entire file.
What it's for
After importing a trial balance, you may find that a required account is missing — for example, a small accrual account or a memo account that was not included in the source system export. Rather than updating and re-importing the spreadsheet, you can add the account directly on the Working Trial Balance and link it immediately.
How to do it
Adding a New Entry Manually
- On the Working Trial Balance, locate the orange data-entry row at the bottom of the list.
- Type the Account Number and Account Name for the new entry.
- Select the Arrow (>>) next to the row to assign a link number.
- In the link search panel, filter for the relevant link, optionally update the Disclosure Description, then select to apply the link.
- Press Enter to save the new entry.
Tip: Once created, the new entry can be included in a journal entry if an adjustment is needed. See Journal Entries (Desktop) for how to do this.
