    Article summary

    The Trial Balance report enables a User to see all the final accruals for GL Accounts to make sure they are in balance. This is usually ran at the end of a period and can be helpful in the making of financial statements. If the debt and credit columns do not match, this can be the tool to figure out the accounts that need to be further analyzed.

      The My Reports screen appears.

    2. At the top of the My Reports screen, select Financial.
      The screen generates a list of reports in alphabetical order.

    3. Locate the Trial Balance report.
