To access the Trial balance window, open the Statements tab and
click the Trial balance button. AuditDesktop supports two trial
balance representation formats:

• Trial balance with one column
• Trial balance with six columns

Note

You can select your trial balance representation format from the
Accounting settings section.

Trial balance with one column

The statement is represented only as a Closing balance (CB). In
comparison to the trial balance with six columns, the trial balance with
one column can be regarded as CB Dr - CB Cr.

When you select to work with a one-column trial balance, the following
columns will be visualised:

• Code - the specific code of the account
• Name - the name of the account
• Previous - the trial balance for the previous audit period
• Initial - the trial balance for the audit period that is loaded
  at the beginning of the audit engagement. The Statement of financial
  position and Income statement are generated from the Initial trial
  balance.
• Misstatements - all found and posted misstatements
• Adjusted - the calculated trial balance, received from the
  Initial trial balance combined with all posted misstatements
• RJE - entries that are moved from one account to another
• Final - the calculated trial balance, received from the Adjusted
  trial balance combined with all posted
  reclassifications
• Control - provided by the client at the end of the audit
  engagement. Its purpose is to check whether all posted misstatements
  have been registered in the client's accounting system. The Control
  trial balance is compared with the Adjusted trial balance.

To add notes to a selected account, open the Notes tab and click
the button. Enter the text in the
window that opens and click
Save.

The Posted adjustments section displays all posted adjustments (if
any) made to the selected account. The Note field shows all notes
added to the respective adjustment. You can right click an adjustment in
order to open and navigate through its context
menu.

Trial balance with six columns

The statement is represented as Opening balance, Turnover and Closing
balance, each having columns for Debit and Credit.

In the six-column trial balance representation format, each trial
balance type forms a separate tab. The trial balance types are identical
to those of the one-column trial balance, with these two additional
types:

• Check previous - automatically generated by the program. It
  exists due to differences between the Previous trial balance,
  Adjusted trial balance and Control trial balance
• Check adjusted - automatically generated by the program. It
  compares the differences between the Adjusted trial balance and
  Control trial balance

In Initial trial balance, you can add Notes to a selected account.
Click the button, enter the text
in the window that opens and click
Save.

All adjustments that are made to the accounts are displayed in the
Posted adjustments section of the Adjusted trial balance.
