Thanks for providing the detailed steps you've performed, @change master admin.
Let me help you reconcile your account to make sure your books are accurate before you close it.
Once the bill payment you made in Well Fargo is downloaded in the Banking register, you'll match it with the transaction you enter in QBO. This way, they are categorized and cleared which avoids duplicates.
After the transaction are matched, proceed to these steps to reconcile your bank account. Here's how:
- Go to the Accounting menu and select Reconcile.
- From the Account drop-down menu, choose the account you want to reconcile.
- Check the Last statement ending date. Make sure your bank statement starts the day after your last reconciliation.
- Review the Beginning balance. Make sure the beginning balance in QuickBooks matches the one on your bank statement.
- Enter the Ending balance and Ending date as they're written on your bank statement.
- Select Start reconciling when you're ready to start.
To reconcile, compare the list of transactions on your bank statement with what's in QuickBooks. If they match, make sure there's a checkmark next to the amount in QuickBooks.
When you reach the end, the difference between your statement and QuickBooks should be $0.00. If it is, select Finish now and then select Done.
In case the difference isn't $0.00, or you can't find a transaction that should be in QuickBooks, don't worry. Here's how to review and fix everything.
Additionally, you can run a Reconciliation report to view your previous reconciliations. This report is useful if you have trouble reconciling the following month and when you meet with your accountant.
