Difference Base 1: Any difference between the sums of Debited and Credited amounts in your home Currency (Base Currency 1) is shown here: the two sums must be the same before you can save the Transaction. A balancing entry shows a zero difference in this field.
Difference Base 2: If you are using the Dual-Base system, any difference between the sums of Debited and Credited amounts in Base Currency 2 is shown here. A balancing entry shows a zero difference in this field. If a Transaction does not balance in Base Currency 1, the Difference Base 1 (above) will not be zero and you will not be able to save the Transaction. If it is balanced in Base Currency 1 but not Base Currency 2, the Base 2 Credit figure in the final row will be adjusted when you save the Transaction and so the Difference Base 2 will be set to zero automatically. If you want to prevent this adjustment, add a final balancing row that posts to a Base Currency Round Off Account before saving. For more details, please refer to the bottom of this page.
Total: These two fields show the sums of Debits and Credits for this Transaction.
