Running Balance

Cumulative balance of an Account up to and including a given Record, computed by summing all Postings to that account in date order.

In Import Review, two running balances are shown when the import source provides its own (currently only Beanscrape):

  • Bank: from the bank’s reported running balance
  • SB: computed from journal records and user choices

When the source doesn’t provide running balances, the balance columns are not shown. See also Journal, Double Entry.
