Thank you for contacting Moneydance support.</p>
<p>Open the register of your account by clicking on it in the left sidebar, and then navigate to Account --> Edit Account from the Moneydance menu bar.</p>
<p>In the window that opens, you'll see the 'Initial Balance' field.<br>
In this field you should enter the balance of your account, just before the earliest transaction in Moneydance, as outlined in <a href="https://infinitekind.tenderapp.com/kb/accounts-and-categories/initial-balance">this article</a>.</p>
<p>I hope this information is helpful. Please let us know if you have further questions or need more assistance.</p>

<p>If the beginning balance in the reconciliation box is not the ending balance of the last reconciliation there are a number of probable reasons, this is because Moneydance calculates the beginning balance so there are a limited number of actions that can cause it to be wrong.</p>
<p>The following list is from the knowledge base article that describes the reconciliation process -</p>
<pre>
<code>- Modified the amount of a transaction that was already marked as cleared.
- Deleted a transaction that was already marked as cleared.
- Manually cleared a transaction in the intervening time.
- Deleted a category that contained cleared transactions.
- Deleted an account that had transfers to or from the account you are reconciling.
- Changed the "Initial balance" on the account under Account --> Edit Account.
- Manually marked a cleared transaction as uncleared.</code>
