I have the steps of reconciling your accounts in QuickBooks Online (QBO), sandcreekgolf. I'll outline the detailed process here to help you stay on the right path.

Reconciling your accounts in QuickBooks ensures that your transactions align with your real-life bank statements. Beforehand, your opening balance should match your actual bank account. If you forgot to enter it during the account setup, you'll want to add it using a journal entry.

Here's how to begin the reconciliation:

1. Select Transactions in the left pane.
2. Head to the Reconcile tab, then click Get started.
3. Pick the account you want to reconcile in the Account drop-down list.
4. Review the Beginning balance, which should be similar to your statement. Otherwise, ensure to fix it to prevent related discrepancies.
5. Enter the Ending balance and Ending date on your statement. In other cases, the ending balance is called a "new balance" or "closing balance" for some banks.
6. Click Start reconciling.

After that, compare your statements with QuickBooks through these steps:

1. Go over each transaction on your statement, starting from the first one.
2. Look for similar entries in the Reconciliation window in QuickBooks, then put a checkmark next to the amount if they match.
3. If an entry is in QuickBooks and not on your statement, please leave it unchecked.
4. If you're confident it's a match and notice a minor detail that seems off, select the item and click Edit to make the necessary changes.
5. Once the difference becomes $0.00, click Finish now.
