Why does a balance forward show up in Inflows cashflow report

. . I solved this problem once before— but can't remember how I did it.

Input would be much appreciated. thank you! —

Could it be this:

"A balance forward is generated by an opening balance transaction. For this amount to show on the report or graph, the opening
balance transaction should occur within the date range of the report or graph. Change the date range of the report to include the opening balance transaction."

in reverse? That is, change the date range to exclude the opening balance transaction?"

Tom— thank you. I will try this solution and advise. It might be tomorrow. I shy away from solving technical issues on a Friday afternoon after 4P. I will let you know. — elaine.

The problem was that a deposit made into account "A" was categorized as a Transfer back into account "A". Once I recategorized the deposit into the correct category, the "Bal.Fwd" went away.

Have to remember- (note to self) that when that notification of "Bal.Fwd." appears, it means there is an extra amount, which then leads me to examine the related TRX to see if it appears as a transfer into the same account.
