Equity specification for sole proprietorships

You create a sub-appendix by pressing the paperclip icon from Reconciliation BS - Overview or Reconciliation BS - Appendices.

This appendix can be used after reconciliation of the accounts that affect equity.

Together with the appendix, two closing entries are created automatically. The first one empties the accounts mapped to the reference accounts 2011-2018 and transfers their balances to the selected equity account. These rebookings are displayed as own rows on the main appendix for the accounts in question.

Due to automatic transfer of account balances, differences may occur on main appendix. If so, add account balances as manual rows in the main appendix.

The other one registers the profit for the year, by retrieving the amount for Calculated profit/loss in the income statement and deducting the recorded amounts (if any) on accounts mapped to reference account 8999.

On the appendix, opening balances and changes during the year for the accounts that affect equity are specified. Also, the registered profit for the year is shown. Equity at the end of the financial year is calculated according to the formula Total equity + Total profit for the year.

If you choose to remove the appendix, the closing entries created are also removed, unless you have transferred them to your ERP system. The same goes for the rows that have been created on the main appendix.
