I have checks from a prior financial period (year has been closed and financials produced & reported) that have not cleared.  From reading the string above I understand that making a deposit in QB for the exact amount of those checks will allow me to clear them from the QB bank reconciliation.  How do I make an adjusting entry to correct the expense for a prior period?  Management will not approve reopening the prior period for adjustments, so I need to work with the accounts and reporting in the current financial year.  I appreciate your help!
