How is the best way to bring the brokers statement in
balance with the bivio balance? I have been told to go back
and get each broker statement and compare to each month of
the club history. I know that would be the preferable way.
But I am talking a small difference on a $180,000.00 balance
account and ten years of history. I simply want to make an
adjustment. How is the best way to do it?

Jack, may I suggest that if you reconcile your statement each month end with
bivio, it would only be one month's history to review if a difference
appears. It is also important to compare monthly the number of shares held
of each security to be sure they are the same with the broker and bivio.

If the discrepancy is small and of long standing and is unchanged, as Ira
suggested you can adjust using Opening Balances. Gene Rooks, Orlando
