If an ETB doesnt balance do you open a Suspense Account or is it only for a Trial Balance?

    Open a suspense account on a trial balance.

    On a ETB, it will be included in your profit/loss figure.

    As far as I know anyway :confused1:

    EDIT: Do you mean if your balance sheet and P+L "profit/loss" figure don't match?
