Manual Account showing negative balance

I have some land that I track the value of manually. I updated the opening balance and now it shows the value as negative despite the fact that the entry is positive.

    If you hover over the "Balance as of today" words, is there a button to resync the balance? If yes, see if that fixes it. There's an ongoing issue causing weird balances with manual accounts and that's the workaround.

    Hello @EL1234,

    Thank you for reaching out! In addition to the advice by @EL1234, I would see if editing the Opening Balance transaction from your screenshot to include a "+" symbol before the amount works in resolving this issue for you. Let us know!

    Resync didn't change anything. Adding a '+' before the number did change the value; however, it makes the plot shows the change despite the entry having a Nov 3rd, 2025 date. Resync doesn't change this.

    Hello @mbalducci,

    Thanks for the reply. It looks like the opening balance was changed from $165,000 to $200,000, based on your screenshots. There would be a small change as shown in the chart. What specifically are you wanting the chart to show, to help clarify the issue here?
