Potential Balance Conflict
I love that Xero tries to extract the balance from the workpaper attached and compares it to the value in Xero but it doesn't work properly.
I have a director loan liability in the trial balance of $1,529.52. In workpapers it shows as ($1,529.52) as its a liability.
I have attached the Account Transactions report from Xero which confirms the balance. However, the report does not show the balance as a negative/credit. It just shows the balance as $1,529.52.
As a result workpapers thinks its out of balance because it's expecting a negative balance. It then gives me an incorrect red warning triangle/flag.
This needs to be improved so we aren't wasting time checking warnings that aren't right.
I can provide examples but as its client sensitive, cannot do on this forum.
