The solution to the Trial Balance out of balance:
1. From the main menu, select Entries/Record Journal Entries. The General Journal windows displays.
2. When you have entered the Date, Reference # (optional), and Description of the entry, click on save. The Distribute to General Ledger screen displays.
3. Enter the account number and the amount you wish to debit or credit. Repeat this step for each account in error.
4. When you have finished the entry, click OK. A dialog box displays with a message "The GL Distributions for this transactions must balance."
5. With the message still on the screen, hold down the Shift key and press the exclamation point (shift 1). The entry should now be saved.
This will let you make a one sided entry, thus correcting the unbalance Trial Balance.
