I need to balance my year and cannot balance the last month

Hi there, dave. When the last month doesn’t balance during reconciliation, it usually means there’s a missing, duplicate, or edited transaction compared with your bank statement. It’s also possible that the beginning or ending balance on your bank statement may be incorrect, or that transactions haven’t cleared the bank yet. These differences can prevent QuickBooks from reconciling to $0.00.
 

To review and correct this. Here's how:
 

  1. Go to the Gear icon and select Reconcile, then choose the account you’re reconciling.
  2. Verify that the beginning balance matches your bank statement. Then, enter the ending balance and statement date.
  3. Compare the transactions listed in QuickBooks with your bank statement to identify any missing, duplicate, or incorrect amounts.
  4. Check whether any previously reconciled transactions have been edited or deleted, and confirm that all cleared transactions from the bank are correctly reflected.
  5. Once the Difference shows $0.00, select Finish now to complete the process.
     

For detailed guidance and step-by-step instructions, refer to the article Fix issues at the end of a reconciliation.
 

If you have additional details about what you’re seeing in the reconciliation screen, feel free to chime back on this thread, and we’ll be happy to help further.
