02 — How it works

The check that double-entry guarantees.

In a correctly-posted ledger, total debits always equal total credits — that’s what makes it double-entry. The trial balance is the proof you carry into close, audit, or financial-statement prep. This tool produces it and certifies it in two clicks.

01

Drop in your accounts

Code, name, type (asset/liability/equity/revenue/expense/contra), debit, credit. The tool sorts and validates as you type.

02

Watch the balance check

Total debits and total credits must agree. The status card turns red the moment they don't — usually a typo in a single account.

03

Export PDF + XLSX

PDF: summary cards, grouped accounts with subtotals, type rollup, certification block, signatures. XLSX: 4 sheets including a working-trial-balance layout.

03 — Built for audit

Every column the auditor opens with.

8 account types

Asset, liability, equity, revenue, expense, contra, gain, loss. Each tagged with its normal side (debit or credit) for working-paper clarity.

Auto-balance check

Status flips between IN BALANCE (green) and OUT OF BALANCE (red, with the exact difference) the moment you edit anything.

Grouped or flat

Group accounts by type with subtotals per group, or list them flat by account code. Match the format your auditor prefers.

Certification block

Optional auditor-style certification block with signature lines for "prepared by" and "approved by". Print on letterhead and it's file-ready.

Per-type rollup

Standalone summary table showing total debits, credits, and net per account type — useful for trend analysis or sanity-checking the lead schedules.

PDF + 4-sheet XLSX

PDF: summary cards + grouped accounts + type rollup + certification + notes. XLSX: Summary, Accounts (flat), By Type, By Type · Detail (working TB).

04 — Common questions

Everything about trial balances.

01Why must total debits equal total credits?

Every transaction in a double-entry ledger has equal debit and credit sides. When you sum all account balances, they're combinations of those equal pairs — so the totals must agree. If they don't, there's a posting error: a one-sided entry, a typo, or a transposed digit somewhere in the GL.

02What do I do if it's out of balance?

Common causes: (a) a single account entered as both debit AND credit when it should be one side only; (b) a transposed digit (842 vs 824 — the difference will be divisible by 9); (c) an account omitted entirely. The "By Type" summary is a fast diagnostic.

03What's a "contra" account?

A contra account has a normal side opposite to its parent. Accumulated depreciation is a contra-asset (sits on the credit side but reduces the asset total). Sales returns is a contra-revenue. The tool tracks the normal side so the working trial balance presents these correctly.

04Should I include opening balances or closing balances?

Closing balances for a year-end / month-end trial balance — what's in the ledger as at the period-end date. For an opening trial balance (start of a new fiscal year), use the prior period's closing balances. The tool doesn't distinguish; you just feed it the right numbers.

05How is this different from the Balance Sheet Generator?

Trial Balance is a working paper: every account, both sides shown, debits = credits. Balance Sheet is a financial statement: assets / liabilities / equity only, presented at year-end with grouping and disclosures. You typically prepare the TB first, then derive the BS from it.

06Output formats?

PDF (summary cards, balance status, grouped accounts with subtotals OR flat listing, grand total with double-rule line, type rollup, certification block with signature lines, notes — auto-paginated) and XLSX (4 sheets: Summary, Accounts, By Type, By Type · Detail).
