Account, reconcile, entered wrong end date of statement, how to undo.

Hey there, Tracy-Wingett. You've come to the right place for help.
 

If you haven't finished reconciling, your statement's ending date can still be edited. Here's how:
1. In the left navigation bar, go to Accounting, then Reconcile.
2. Choose the bank account from your Account drop-down list.
3. Select the Resume reconciling button.
4. Towards the upper right-hand corner, click Edit Info.
5. Enter the correct Ending Date. You can also change the Ending Balance is necessary.
6. Hit Save to complete your changes.


In the event your reconciliation has been completed, you can unreconcile so that it can be done with an accurate ending date.

If you have any other questions, I'm just a post away. Have a wonderful day!

"If you need to completely start over, reach out to your accountant. Only accountants can undo entire reconciliations."

But why?? we are the ones reconciling, of course we know what to do. Why we are not able to make changes once is completed, something as simple as editing the date, something as simple as changing an amount, is so easy to mistype, please help us to be able to edit dates in our reconciliations once they are completed.

We need to be able to edit without bothering our CPA's or wasting more time that nowadays we do not have. We need an EDIT button. So necessary!! Please QB Online we need the update.

Hi there, @grislozano.

 

I'm here to provide details regarding QuickBooks' ability to undo reconciliations.

 

Users that don't have an Edit button are the ones who might not be utilizing QBOA. We were unable to edit the entire reconciliation because doing so would have an impact on your books. What we can do is modify each transaction manually to reverse the reconciliation. 

 

Here's how:

 

1. Go back to the Gear icon at the top, then pick Chart of Accounts under Your Company column.

2. Locate the appropriate account for the transaction and select View Register on the Action column.

3. Identify the transaction to edit.

4. In the checkmark column, select the box with the R until it's blank. It removes the transaction from the reconciliation.

5. Select Save.

6. Close the account register.

 

For more information, you can also use this article for your reference: How to unreconciled a transaction or undo a reconciliation.

 

In addition, check out this Reconciliation Workflow that you can follow if you want to reconcile your QuickBooks accounts with your actual bank and credit card statements.

 

In case you need the summary report of your reciliation, need to print or export them? Here's an article for additional detail: How do I view, print, or export a reconciliation report?
