Each query returned zero count.

Ok, this is telling me that you have dangling rows in acc_trans, which don;t correspond to any transactions.

You may want to look through them first and see if you can tell what they are. The best way to do that is to use a query similar to this one:

select a.accno, a.description, ac.amount, ac.transdate, ac.source, ac.memo

from account a

join acc_trans ac on a.id = ac.chart_id

where ac.trans_id not in (

select id from ar union select id from ap union select id from gl

);

Then you can archive them out of acc_trans, or deal with them, and then delete them from acc_trans. I usually like to copy them somewhere else first so one can audit and deal with them later if necessary.
