Yes, I need to make an adjusting entry that corrects an account.  This means that the account was not correct in QB because QB periodically incorrectly records data input from my bank.  It tries to be efficient, but does so at the cost of inaccuracy.  I need to be able to save the journal entry as unbalanced.  It seems the software does not allow that.  Would a better tact be to back-date the specific account with an entry?
