How do I add Nominal Opening Balances?

Click Nominal Journal.

Or click Books > click Journal Adjustments > click Nominal Journal. 

Select one of the Nominal Accounts that you want to add/change the Opening Balance on and click Change. 

Type the relevant figure into either the Debit box or Credit box (depending on which it should be). 

You can enter something into the Details Box (if you want to). 

Click Save. 

Please note that after this: 

• The Debit and Credit boxes do NOT match.
• The Balance does NOT show 0.00.
