I am new to Reckon Hosted and need advice on entering opening balances.

I need to enter opening balances; assets, liabilities incl debtors, creditors, and allow for advance payments from customers. Is there a Reckon Guide for this?

Hi Gerard.
When you create a new Balance Sheet account there is actually an option to enter an opening balance in that screen.
Alternatively you can do a journal, transfer or deposit depending on the type of account.
One big journal entry would probably be the quickest if you are familiar with journals (Company drop down menu).
Kind regards,

Hi Gerard
Not only balance sheet accounts, but suppliers and customers as you create them gives you a chance to do an opening balance. If you have imported your lists from another file then as Sally has said, do the journal entries.
When posting journal entries for suppliers and customers you will need do a journal entry for each customer / Accounts Receivable and Supplier / Accounts Payable - you will need to enter the customer or supplier name in the provided column to link the journal entry to the customer / supplier... call me if you need help 0429 3053001 -
OMG.. you cannot create 1 large journal for all your AP opening balances. Reckon will not allow more than 1 AR or AP entry per journal. Wish I had known this before I entered them all :-(

Hi Joanne
