@KN52 I hope you saw this.  This is exactly what I needed and the other responses from QB or other users were not helpful at all.  If you add the additional 5 transactions to resolve, put whatever remaining balance you have left to make it balance/resolve.  Save/post that entry as if the last line is correctly categorized.  go into chart of accounts and pull up the last line of that entry and when you click on it, you can add unlimited transactions to properly record remaining transactions.  thanks @RMR2
