Bank reconciliation problems with Quickbooks desktop

We really appreciate the effort you’ve put into addressing your concern, Bevvy. We understand this can be challenging, but don’t worry—we’re here to help. We can correct the beginning balances by conducting a mini reconciliation in QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT). Let’s explore the details below.

Beforehand, please make sure deleted and voided transactions are recreated. You can run and customize the Audit Trail report to look for each of them, ensuring the same information is captured again. To locate this data, go to the Reports menu and select Accountant & Taxes. Also, you can refer to your bank statement to ensure the bank register totals are accurate.

Once entries are entered back in QBDT, it's time to reconcile them. Begin by reconciling the transaction from June, followed by the one in December.

Here's how:

1. In the Banking menu, select Reconcile.
2. Choose the account, then enter the date for an "off-cycle reconciliation" in the Date of Statement field. It's any date between your last reconciliation and the next scheduled one.
3. Provide the balance of your last successful reconciliation in the Ending Balance field and hit Continue.
   
   
    
4. Once in the Reconcile window, check the transaction you're fixing.
5. Make sure the Difference field shows $0.00.
6. Click Reconcile Now.

To make sure these corrections are handled accurately, I recommend seeking guidance from your accountant. They can provide close guidance to prevent further discrepancies when fixing past reconciliations.

I hope the information above helps restore the integrity of your financial records. If other questions arise, drop by this thread again anytime. We are here to assist you with various tasks in QuickBooks Desktop. Have a great day ahead.

I received the reply and much appreciate the advice. I will be trying this solution next week when I go into the office again and will let you know how I do.
