dear rajeshsinh,

You should maintain a table of transactions. It should keep all transactions including opening balances. Usually a transaction should contain tran id, date, amount, account.

If it is debit u can give the amount as +ve and for the credit amounts u can give -ve values. For getting the balance, you may select the sum of amount field for that account. That column will be the balance of the account.

you can do like this:

select sum(amount) as balance from acctran where acode='1234' and docdate>='01/apr/2013' and docdate<='08/sep/2013';

the balance column will be the account balance.

with regards,

Sunil
