Overview
Select "Adjust Beginning Balances" from the G/L Accounts submenu
of the Accounting main menu to enter or adjust the beginning balances
of G/L accounts. Use when the RDPWin system is first installed or
when the beginning balances are incorrectly transferred from the prior
year during year-end procedures. Once a G/L Account Number is selected,

for that account number. The "New Balance" field displays
the same as the Current Balance; however, if this balance is not correct,
change the value and click Save or "Save & Close".
