View source for Troubleshooting: User-Defined Account Type shows negative amount in Balance Sheet

'''Question :''' I’ve created an user-defined account type under Balance Sheet and a debit entry transaction was entered. Why it is shown in negative amount when I preview the Balance Sheet report? I’ve set it as an asset group and it should show the balance in positive.

<b>Version :</b> 1.8 / 1.9 / 2.0

<u><b>Possible Reason :</b></u>

You didn’t set correctly the Display as Positive setting.


<u><b>Solution :</b></u>

In Balance Sheet report, go to <span style='color:red'>Other Settings > Set Account Group</span>, change the <span style='color:red'>Display as Positive</span> from <span style='color:red'>Credit</span> to <span style='color:red'>Debit</span>, and click on <span style='color:red'>Save</span>.

Preview again the Balance Sheet report, now it should show in Positive amount.
