This cashbook has no balance sheet accounts yet. Add them to your chart of accounts first.
Every account in your chart is already in the table.
Saving again replaces this entry — the old one is reversed and both stay in your history.
Simplified direction, 2026-09-03. The screen is modelled on Xero's conversion balances page and holds nothing else: a conversion date, one Debit / Credit table, the two totals, the 840 difference line, a lock offer and Save.
The main real-world path is the Xero importer prefilling the draft, which replaces the manual journal the old importer posted. The user reviews the figures and saves. Entering everything by hand is the rare case, so the guided path, the .xlsx upload and the per-bank-account cards were all removed from this screen.
Bank accounts 090 and 091 are ordinary editable rows now, so the two totals count every typed figure and need no exclusion note.
