Should bank balance match quickbooks balance?

Welcome to the QuickBooks Community, @ru-delia-yahoo-c.

 

Yes, and I've come to share some information on why there is a difference between the QuickBooks Balance and Bank Balance.

 

The QuickBooks balance is the total balance to all bank transactions you added or matched to QuickBooks, while the Bank balance is your bank's actual balance from the last bank feed update. If there is a difference between these two balances, below are the possible reasons causing it:

 

  • Outstanding transactions.
  • New transactions for a connected account.
  • Duplicate transactions.
  • Edited or deleted transactions.
  • Card (liability) account.

 

Depending on these factors, there are different steps to resolve this issue. You can check out this article for the detailed steps and information: Fix issues for accounts you've reconciled in the past in QuickBooks Online.

 

Once everything is fixed, you may want to run a reconciliation report. This is useful if you have trouble reconciling the following month and when you meet with your accountant.

 

Please let me know how things go. I'll be around to provide further assistance, @ru-delia-yahoo-c.
