How do we delete reconciled

You made the right choice in reaching out to us, docampo23.

 

In QuickBooks Online (QBO), you can undo the reconciliation to delete or zero out the beginning balance. This can be done by manually edit the transactions within the register. I'll show you the steps below:

  1. Go to the Accounting menu. Then select Chart of Accounts.
  2. Find the account and select Account history or View register.

  3. Select the transaction you want to unreconciled.
  4. Click the box with "R" and keep clicking it until the box is blank. This removes the transaction from the reconciliation.
  5. Select Save.

We run a cash basis business.  A check was not recorded during October and as a result, we do not balance in November.  It does not show up on the reconciliation report as an uncleared item.  We need this to happen, but we cannot restart the reconciliation.  How do we delete the entire reconciliation and start over?

Thank you for joining the thread, @JF78. Let me assist you with your reconciled account in QuickBooks Online (QBO).

 

Right now, the option to delete an entire reconciliation report is unavailable. What we can do is to manually undo each transaction in that report.

 

In this way, the reconciled transactions will be excluded from the completed reconciliation.

 

Here’s how you can undo each transaction:

 

  1. On the left navigation pane, select the Accounting menu.
  2. Go to the Chart of accounts tab.
  3. Find the account that has the reconciled transaction. Then select View register.
  4. If the transaction is reconciled, you’ll see an “R” in the checkmark ✓column.
  5. In the checkmark ✓ column, select the box with the “R” until the box is blank. This removes the transaction from the reconciliation.
  6. Select Save.

 

I also suggest inviting an accountant to let them undo the reconciliation.

 

You can check out further details here about excluding an individual transaction from a completed reconciliation in QuickBooks Online.

 

Let me know if you have more questions in mind. I’ll be here to assist you always. Have a great day!

That does a real disservice to accountants that work for small businesses that can't afford the high end monthly costs.  So, I, an accountant, have to pay another accountant to delete a reconciliation correctly.  Your method does not actually fix the actual problem.  I need the uncleared check that I entered late to show up in that reconciliation report.  Unreconciling each transaction will not fix the report.

This is a REALLY big problem for small business owners and the accountants that work for them.  Please consider changing this.

Agreed. I'm currently stuck in the same situation, now my books look crazy with this reconciliation report that should no longer exist since I removed the 'R' from every transaction reconciled in the report. And this is because QuickBooks decided for my business how I can and can't manage the reports on their site. AND I only had to go through that mess because there is no easy option to start over if you're just beginning and have more than 60 days with the program. You can't even cancel because you'd no longer be able to utilize the business you have attached to the cancelled account. Absolutely ridiculous.

 

An actual solution that doesn't require paying someone else to handle it would be nice.
