Adding a balance update to an existing Account

There are two ways to add a balance update to an existing Account:

  1. From the Account detail page (single Account update)
  2. From the Update Balances page (multiple Accounts update)

From the Account detail page

  1. Open the Accounts menu in the top navigation bar and click on the All Accounts link.
  2. Click on the Account you want to update.
  3. Update the Updated Balance field with the new balance. Below the field is the last updated date and balance.
  4. Click the Update button.

From the Update Balances page

  1. Open the Accounts menu in the top navigation bar and click on the Update Balances link.
  2. Update the balance field for each Account you want to update. Below the field is the last updated date and balance. This is a great way to update multiple Accounts at once without having to navigate to each Account detail page.
