How to undo past bank reconciliation in qb online

Hello KimberlyS,

Just wanted to let you know that I had previously matched the transactions to the correct A/R account but didn't think that it was ok for me to manual indicate that the transaction was reconciled.  I thought I had to go through Chart of accounts > Bank Register > Reconcile option.  I kept getting warnings pretty much against manual reconciliation.  But I guess because it had been previously reconciled this would be the only option to get back to being reconciled.  

The only concern I have now is that when I go into the "Reconciliation Discrepancy Report", it now reflects the transactions that were previously "deleted" plus "reconciled in the register".

Is that correct?

By the way, the discrepancy difference is still not at zero but at least it's going in the right direction - so thank you for your guidance.  I am still working on fixing all of the remaining transactions.

How to undo past bank reconciliation in qb online

I'm glad to hear that you're already taking steps to correct your transactions and resolve the discrepancy in your financial data, JerseyStorm. I understand the importance of maintaining accurate records, so I’ll make it a priority to discuss the details in the Reconciliation Discrepancy report to help ensure you feel confident in the actions you've taken.

 

Before we get started, I’d like to know which QuickBooks product you’re currently using. Are you utilizing QuickBooks Online (QBO) or QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT)?

 

The Reconciliation Discrepancy report is available only in QBDT and highlights transactions that have changed since your last reconciliation. Based on what you’ve described, yes, it accurately reflects the correct data, especially as you're fixing some of your previously reconciled items.

 

On the other hand, you can pull up the Reconciliation Summary report in QBO to know which entries were cleared and left uncleared when you reconcile. To pull it up, refer to these steps:

 

  1. Go to the Transactions menu and select the Reconcile tab.
  2. Click the History by account link. 80.png
  3. Select the Summary option.
  4. Double-click the account in the Reconciliation Summary report to see the details. 81.png

 

Additionally, would you like to get a copy of your reconciliation reports from QuickBooks for future reference? If so, you can find more details in this article: View, print, or export a reconciliation report.

 

I'm looking forward to seeing how the Reconciliation report assists you in maintaining the accuracy of your financial records, JerseyStorm. Feel free to reach out anytime you have concerns managing transactions in QuickBooks and have a great day!
