How the month-end proof works
Accountable checks every month-end, account by account, against your old tool and your statements. A month ties only when the difference is exactly $0.00.

Steps
Step 1: After you press Start the move, wait for the headline N of M months tie to the cent.
Step 2: Look at the month strip: blue months are settled, amber months need you.

Step 4: Press Show next to N months match to see every month: Ties to the cent, Explained, Fixed by your answer, Kept as it was or Needs you.

What is checked each month
- Every account's balance at month-end against your old tool's balance sheet.
- Each month's income and expenses against your old profit and loss.
- Total equity, including the roll-forward of retained earnings.
- Every bank and card ending balance against its statement.
- What customers owe you and what you owe vendors against their control accounts.
Good to know
- There is no tolerance: a month ties only at exactly $0.00.
- A difference carried from an earlier month counts against that earlier month only, so one missing entry never flags every month after it.
