How do I reconcile my credit card while waiting for fraudulent charges to resolve?

Hello, Alpinewood. While resolving fraudulent charges, you can still reconcile your credit card account. I'll elaborate this in detail on how to proceed with your reconciliation.

Since your credit card statement already indicates the fraudulent charges, it's important to record them in QuickBooks if you haven't already. This is because QuickBooks should have a record of transactions similar to what your actual credit card shows. Then, proceed with your usual reconciliation.

After the bank resolves the fraudulent charges, you can record the offsetting transactions as indicated in the statement.

Additionally, to further guide you in performing and resolving reconciliations in QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT), you may want to check out this article: Learn the reconcile workflow in QuickBooks.
