Okay, I re-entered the four split values with 2 digit decimals and the total showed 71.11

It did fix the problem in the ‘Balance’ value.

On January 09, U sent you an email as shown below where I answered that all entries were entered manually in chronicle order.

However, some figures might have been pasted from the Windows calculator clipboard. [Ctrl+C] & [Ctrl+V]

I removed the history but left the original message I am replying too. Is that what you wanted?

ok, so the point is to determine how you can get those numbers with imprecision after the 2 frac digits.

if you look at your image001.jpg:

- the sum of the split is -71.10610, which is the problem

=> if you input a split txn with the exact same value in your image002, you will have -71.11, the correct value => can you make the test to confirm that ?

worse thing is that, looking at your running balance column in the same image, you also have numbers after the 2nd digit, which indicate other transaction have the same problem.

on 2021-01-09, I asked if you were importing the transaction from a file, or manually input it ?

- if this is a file, is it a OFX, QIF, CSV ?

- how many digits the file contains for amount ?

thx,
