After every accounting period, a T Balance or Trial Balance report is created for the purpose of listing ending balance in each account.

When the Trial Balance report is first created, it is called “Unadjusted Trial Balance”.

When the accounting team

makes adjustments and fix all the errors, then it is called the “Adjusted Trial Balance”.

The Trial Balance report is strictly compiled from accounting records.

Organizations with subsidiaries get an ending trial balance report from each subsidiary.

A Trial Balance Report is initially comprised of the following columns:

• AccountName

• Ending debit balance (if

any)

• Account Number

• Ending credit balance (if
