Entering the starting date and starting balance for each bank account
A starting date and a starting balance should be added for each bank account that you add to Nojumi. The starting date should be the date you migrate your practice to Nojumi, and the balance of the bank account should be the balance as at that date.
When you add a bank account, whether it is a trust account, a general account or a credit card, you should add the starting date and the starting balance for the bank account.
To add the starting date and the starting balance
- On the sidebar, click on Settings
- Under the Bank Accounts tab, click on the bank account that you wish to configure
- Enter the starting balance and date
When you add a start date, Nojumi will know that it is responsible for reconciliation of your accounts only as at that date and it therefore ignores any issues that may appear in your bank accounts prior to that date. As an example, unmatched transactions that pre-date the start date are ignored and you are only notified of unmatched transactions after the start date. The starting date and starting balance are also used for bank feed verification.
