Narrative:

Climbing through fl 320 we received an excess aft cg ECAM (red) warning. We followed ECAM protocol and selected the trim tk mode switch to fwd. This transferred approximately 1500 pounds of fuel into the center tank from the trim tank. Upon leveling at fl 34O the ECAM items were completed and the cg was within a normal range of approximately 28.5 with approximately 1800 pounds in the center tank. The pitch trim indicator was within the white band. We referenced the QRH then confirmed the numbers entered into the aps were correct by comparing them to the final weight and balance. They were. There were no additional warnings or cautions for the remainder of the flight. Remainder of the flight was uneventful. Aircraft pitch and airspeed appeared normal throughout the event and for the rest of the flight. [Maintenance] entry upon arriving [at destination].
