Hello!
We used to have an regions account that we lost conection before closed. Once I receive the statement I input mannualy the transactions that was not downloaded. The quickbooks balance was 0 (which is correct) and I reconciled the account but the bank balance is still wrong. How can I have the bank balance 0 so I can inactive the account?

Hello there, @milenamelo.
I'm here to make sure you can inactivate one of your accounts (unused/closed) to keep your chart of accounts organized in QuickBooks Online (QBO).
The Bank Balance in the tile for the bank you want to inactivate in the Banking or Transactions menu is the balance before you lost your online banking connection. Since it's already closed and no longer connected, the amount will remain ($50,756.20) and can no longer be updated.
Based on the screenshots you've provided, I can tell that you're good to go in inactivating one of your accounts in your chart of accounts in QBO. This is because you've already reconciled it, and your In QuickBooks and Ending Balance are now showing the correct balance to zero.
Before making an account inactive, please know that your transactions won't be removed. This way, you can access your past data for reporting purposes. Whenever you're ready to perform the process, follow these steps:
