Buy nowI'd be glad to expound your concern about restoring deleted bank account, -carolannesabol-.

Here's how:

Hey there thanks so much for the response!
So my issue is really that I accidentally created duplicates of my checking and savings and then deleted them. So now after the correction was added, my QB is reflecting double the actual balance of my bank account. Does this make sense?
Thank you for clarifying things out, @-carolannesabol-.
Let me share with you some information about what happens when you delete an account on your Chart of Accounts.
QuickBooks creates a journal entry if you make an account with a balance inactive. The remaining balance gets transferred to another account as a result of this action. Additionally, existing transactions don't disappear and stay on your financial reports. If you decide to use the account again, QuickBooks won't update the journal entry or move the amount back.
To make sure everything's good on your account, I'd still suggest reaching out to your accountant for further actions/changes.
