How to undo a bank reconciliation so that it can be done anew, multiple months also

Thanks for following up with the Community, Andrew. I have information for you to undo a bank reconciliation in QuickBooks Online (QBO).

 

To begin with, you can undo reconciled transactions one at a time. But if you'd rather start fresh, it's best to get in touch with your accountant. They can use their QuickBooks Online Accountant (QBOA) to reverse the reconciliation. To invite them, you can follow these steps:

 

  1. Open your QBO account.
  2. Go to the Gear icon in the upper-right of your screen, and select Manage Users.
  3. From the Accounting Firms tab, click the Invite button.
  4. Enter the accountant's information, then Save.
  5. Let your accountant undo the entire reconciliation.

 

For more detailed information, you can check this article: Undo a client's reconciliation in QBOA.

 

If you prefer to handle it yourself, you can follow these steps to undo reconciled transactions individually:

 

  1. Go to the Gear icon in the upper-right of your screen, and choose Chart of Accounts.
  2. Find the account and select View Register.
  3. To help you focus on this task, filter the register only to include the last 60 days of transactions.
  4. Select the transaction and review the check column. If the transaction is reconciled, you’ll see anR.”
  5. Keep clicking the box until it's blank. It removes the transaction from the reconciliation.
  6. Click Save. Then close your register.

 

For more information about unreconciling individual transactions, check this article: Undo or remove transactions from reconciliations.

 

I'm also adding an article in case you face reconciliation issues in the future: Fix issues when reconciling accounts.

 

If you have any follow-up questions about undoing a bank reconciliation, feel free to ask me. I'm always here to help you, Andrew.
