    You can put in a balance adjustment transaction by entering a transaction where the category is the account name enclosed in square brackets.
    Like this:

    Balance Adjustment    [This Account]    $amountNeededtoZeroAccount

    @Chris_QPW This is a duplicate post.  In the other thread, the OP stated that he had a duplicate debit in the account.

    I didn't see the other post.   :)

    BTW I should have probably stated "Ideally you would fix what is keeping the account from being zero, but here is a quick 'I don't care' solution".
