Calculated Retained Earnings

edited Jun 2, 2025 2:54PM in Ask A Guru 6 comments

Hi!

So, there is the retained earnings calculated by NS right in the financial statements. And which kind of separates itself from the Retained Earnings account that has actual journals in it.. Is there any way they could be put together in one section and combine them?

And if possible add the calculated Retained Earnings to the beginning retained earnings? Cause you see the Beginning Retained Earnings, it has the opening balance from the uploaded TB. But every year the one calculated by NetSuite does not add up to that Beginning Retained Earnings. And so it looks like the Beginning RE is still that one we uploaded during implementation.. Which is very confusing too…

Howdy, Stranger!
