Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/actualbudget/actual/issues/7618

What happened?

The balance in the sidebar and running balance in the transactions list are the same. These do not match the balance shown at the top of the account by the name nor in the chart when displayed. The account balance shows 0 needs to be reconciled. When I click the lock icon to reconcile, it picks up the balance in the left sidebar but then wants to create a transaction to reconcile with the value at the top of the screen.

How can we reproduce the issue?

Not sure how I got here to be honest

What browsers are you seeing the problem on?

No response

Operating System

This means you have a broken split. Try the repair transactions button in the settings, then go though the splits in that account and look for ones that don't add up properly.

Do you have any closed accounts that are not ZERO? (That's how I got there)
