    One final option to consider (another workaround). You could create a temporary data source that uses a flat file source and load to the same import step containing the regular balances. Within the flat file, load the $0 balances for just those accounts you need.

Hi Nolan, 

We actually had the opposite issue which might help you - we had an account that's usually a zero balance at month end and shouldn't be part of the reconciliations come in with a balance mid-month so now it's forever part of the reconciliations. Could you have someone load a balance to the account, import it in your actuals, Discover it in RCM then reverse the balance in the base level system? Once it's in RCM, it'll always be there so you won't have to worry about watching it going forward with your current solution.

Nicole, I actually did think of doing that as a last resort (getting the accounting team involved to post 1$ to the base system)! I will definately consider it as an option as well.
