- Correct Batch ID Out Of Balance: This utility is a last resort utility that will create a balancing entry for a batch ID, A/P ID number. An Account and/or Sub-Account must be specified for the difference to go into.

Calc 2nd Currency—This utility calculates the second currency and is designed for companies that have an existing set of books in Pak Accounting and are implementing the Foreign Currency optional module. After the currency computation is complete, Pak Accounting summarizes all account balances for all years from the posted detail.

- If the original set of books are in the Primary Currency (Original set of books are in Primary Currency option is checked) - Pak Accounting will compute the second currency amount.
- If the Original set of books are in Primary Currency is not checked - Pak Accounting will move the current amount into the 2nd currency amount and then compute the primary currency.
