This option is only available from within a workpaper, not from the Workpapers tab.

A journal with blank descriptions is created based on the first day of the workpaper period and the closing balances of the previous year.
If a Balance Forward journal already exists and hasn’t been posted, Client Accounting asks if you want to delete the existing entry and regenerate a new journal based on the updated account mappings.

If you make a mistake or if your client’s business circumstances change in future years, you can modify and delete Balance Forward accounts
