Trial Balance

Quick Answer: Trial Balance

The Trial Balance proves debits equal credits as of any date—a checkpoint CPAs and bookkeepers run before signing off on month-end. Filter by fund, scan out-of-balance accounts, and export the listing your auditor requests. Alignmint pulls live balances from the general ledger so the trial balance always matches posted journal entries.

Available on Plus, Pro, and Enterprise with fund accounting. Run it alongside Balance Sheet and Income Statement during close. Parent organizations bundle trial balance output into Close Packet on Pro or Enterprise. Click account totals to drill into the Transaction Ledger Report when one balance will not reconcile.
