bank reconciliation - deleted transaction

I deleted 3 transactions after they were reconciled. 

My balance is now off. I watched instructions for how to fix, to re create the transaction and then reconcile it in the register. 

I have done that but it is not fixing my beginning balance to match my most current statement. 

Any ideas?

Thank you

bank reconciliation - deleted transaction

Hi, jjohnson071.

 

I appreciate your initiative in seeking answers to fixing your deleted reconciled transactions and recognize your dedication to maintaining accurate financial records to ensure the integrity of your accounts. 

 

Deleting a reconciled transaction can have significant implications on your account reconciliation and financial records. Changes like this also affect your beginning balance. After recreating the deleted transactions and reconciling them manually in the register, you'll get a message the next time you reconcile.  Open the discrepancy report by clicking the hyperlink shown in the image. 

 

 

The deleted transaction may still be on the list, but the difference should be $0.00. It won't affect your reconciliation.

 

Once you've thoroughly reviewed all the information in the discrepancy report, ensure that the Total Discrepancy Difference is recorded as $0.00. Double-check the initial balance in QuickBooks to ensure it matches the beginning balance in your bank statement. Click Resume reconciling to proceed with the reconciliation process.
