Error - 'Journal does not balance! Please amend details before posting' when trying to post a journal from batch

Updated this week

This usually means that the journal lines themselves do not balance back to the same value for debit and credit. Please check this using the following:

  1. Select the journal you are trying to post in the batch screen

  2. Select the Edit button

Inspect the journal lines carefully and ensure that the total of debit values match the total of credit values.
​
If you have checked the journal and confirmed that both columns balance to the same value in Dimensions, please raise a new case online and reference the title of this article and please include details of the journal affected.
