Creating a Balance Forward

A Balance Forward is typically used when you are transferring from another system to TherapyAppointment.

Its purpose is to move either a charge or a credit balance on a patient's account that existed in your old system to TherapyAppointment. Once the balance forward is entered into TherapyAppointment, you'll want to adjust off the balance in your old system.
