# Balance Overview

This page lists every settlement account connected to the finance portal so you can confirm balances at a glance and drill into recent activity when needed.

## Balance Summary

Each account appears as a card showing the current balance and account name. Totals update automatically as transactions post from the Payment Log.

| Account    | Balance   |
| ---------- | --------- |
| Allan      | 30.00     |
| Bank       | 19,384.72 |
| Cash       | 1,925.05  |
| Online     | 16,678.59 |
| POS        | 28,622.81 |
| Peter      | 0.00      |
| Petty Cash | -830.00   |
| Vcard      | 14,806.75 |

* Negative balances (like `Petty Cash`) highlight accounts that require reconciliation.
* Card colors mirror the Payment Log so you can spot familiar account types instantly.

## Expandable Transaction History

Select any account card to expand a panel containing the latest transactions for that account. The detail grid includes the amount, transaction type, description, and posting date.

* When no transactions are available, the panel stays collapsed to keep the view tidy.
