Approved opening balance/date, older transaction export, statement cutoff and accountant instructions.
How it works
- Read what the opening balance summarizes and which earlier rows are already represented.
- Place older rows on a timeline and separate overlap from genuinely missing history.
- Calculate a diagnostic overlap only with evidenced membership; never adjust the opening balance automatically.
- Return affected rows and accountant questions; do not import, delete, reconcile or post transactions.
The output
opening basis | older row/date | included evidence | possible overlap | diagnostic amount | question
Worked fictional example
Fictional opening 100 already includes a prior deposit 20. Adding that deposit again makes diagnostic 120; flag 20 potential double count, not an approved balance change.
