How to unreconcile a monthly statement that has already by reconciled?

Great to see you here, @MV550.

 

Allow me to jump in and share some details about redoing reconciliation in QuickBooks Online (QBO).

 

The feature of being able to undo the past reconciliations in QBO is available with QBO Accountant. That said, only an accountant user can revert any reconciliations made on the account

However, if you’re using a different version, manually unreconcile each transaction to undo the reconciliation. Let me provide you with the step-by-step process.

 

Here's how:
 

  1. Go to the Accounting tab on the left panel.
  2. Under Your Company, select Chart of Accounts.
  3. Choose the account you’re working on, and click on View Register.
  4. Select the transactions you want to unreconcile.
  5. Keep on clicking the R status until it shows blank or cleared (C).
  6. Click on Save.
  7. Choose Yes in the confirmation window.

 

To learn more about reconciliations in QBO, feel free to read the details from this article.

 

After unreconciling, you can reconcile the transactions again. You can also check this article to see different information on how reconciling transactions work in QuickBooks: Learn the reconcile workflow in QuickBooks.

 

If there's anything else I can do for you, please don't hesitate to leave a comment below. I'm a post away to help. Take care always!

Do I need admin access to reach the Accounting tab? Because I cannot.

How to unreconcile a monthly statement that has already by reconciled?

I appreciate you joining the thread, @mnazy. Let me provide insights about unreconciling monthly statements from the Accounting section.

 

User restrictions may affect your rights while working in QuickBooks Online (QBO). That said, yes, you need to log in as an admin to access the Accounting tab. Alternatively, you can go to the Gear icon to proceed with your Chart of Accounts. From there, open your register and un/reconcile your entries.

 

  1. Go to the Gear icon, then click on Chart of accounts under Account and settings.
  2. Choose your account.
  3. Click on View register under action.

 

If the option is still unavailable on your end, I suggest replicating the steps through a private window to narrow down the result. 

 

You can use either of these keyboard shortcuts to save you time:

 

  • Chrome: Ctrl + Shift + N
  • Firefox: Ctrl + Shift + P
  • Safari: Command + Shift + N

 

If it works fine, go back to your original browser and clear its cache to refresh the page.

 

On the other hand, you can review the resources from these links for more hints about QBO reconciliation:

 

 

It's my pleasure to share these details with you today. If you have follow-up questions, let me know by leaving a comment below. I'm always here to help. Have a good one!

How to unreconcile a monthly statement that has already by reconciled?

Thanks for joining the Community and getting involved with this thread, 9130353325234416.
 

You'll only see a View report option if you're using QuickBooks Online Accountant.
 

In the event you're using QuickBooks Online, you can manually unreconcile each individual transaction. Before doing so, it's recommended that you check if there's an issue with your account's original opening, beginning, or ending balances. You'll initially want to review these to rule out if any errors were caused with them, as this can cause an account to not balance correctly.
 

Once you've identified there's no issues with the account's opening, beginning, or ending balances, you can proceed to unreconcile transactions.
 

Here's how:
 

  1. In your left navigation bar, go to Accounting, then Chart of accounts.
  2. Find the account your transaction's in, and click the account's View register option.
  3. Locate your transaction. Since it's reconciled, you'll see an "R" in its Checkmark (✔) column.
  4. Hit the transaction to expand your view.
  5. In its Checkmark (✔) column, click the box with an "R" in it. Continue clicking this box until it's blank. Doing so removes it from your reconciliation.
  6. Select Save.

 

In the event you're using QuickBooks Online Accountant, but don't see your View report option when following Tori B's steps, I'd initially recommend clearing cached data and Intuit-specific cookies.
 

If you still don't see the option after clearing your cookies and cached data, you'll want to confirm you meet all of our system requirements.
 

I've also included a couple detailed resources about reconciling and unreconciling which may come in handy moving forward:
 

 

If there's any additional questions, I'm just a post away. Have a great day!

How to unreconcile a monthly statement that has already by reconciled?

Hi Eric.

 

I'd be happy to help you unreconcile the April Paypal 2 statements so they don't throw off your records.

 

If you’re currently using QuickBooks Online Accountant, you can utilize the Undo reconciliation feature to unreconcile previous transactions without manually editing individual transactions from within the register. 

 

To undo reconciliation, here's how:

 

  1. In the left menu, click Accounting
  2. Go to the Reconcile tab.
  3. Select History by account.
  4. Choose the account you want to reconcile and set a date range from the dropdowns.
  5. Find the reconciliation on the list.
  6. Select View report to open the Reconciliation Report.
  7. Review any discrepancies and changes your client wants to make.
  8. When you’re ready, select the dropdown ▼ in the Action column, and then select Undo.
  9. Select Yes and then Undo to confirm.

 

For more information on how to undo reconciliation, see this article: Undo a client’s reconciliation in QuickBooks Online Accountant.

 

If you use a different version, you can undo a reconciled statement by manually unreconciling each transaction.. Let me walk you through the procedure step by step.

 

  1. Click the Gear icon at the top.
  2. Select Chart of Accounts.
  3. Locate and choose the account you’re working on, and click on View Register.
  4. Select the transactions you want to unreconcile.
  5. Keep on clicking the R status until it shows blank or cleared (C).
  6. Click on Save.
  7. Choose Yes to confirm.

 

Before completing any of the steps, I suggest consulting with your accountant. This is to make sure that all of your records are in order.

 

If you run into any errors or problems while reconciling, refer to this article: Fix issues for accounts you've reconciled in the past in QuickBooks Online

How to unreconcile a monthly statement that has already by reconciled?

Hi,

 

I wanted to unreconcile from 2022 and restart rec from there. There is no history under rec tab but nonetheless, all 2022 is R. My opening balance is correct sitting there January 1st 2022, from bank, but when I want to reconcile, it's different. How come there are all R but I don't see a history of recs? Also, is there a way to select multiple transactions to do the trick you mentioned (in case I just wanted to keep the opening balance and space or C everything else)? I can only go one by one...

 

Thanks,

How to unreconcile a monthly statement that has already by reconciled?

Thank you for sharing your concern here at the Community, @RayAdmin.

 

I'm here to help you correct your reconciliation in 2022 and provide you with insights about undoing multiple transactions in QuickBooks Online (QBO).

 

First, may I know if you've migrated from QBDT to QBO? If so, this might be the reason why you cannot see the reconciliation history even if the transactions have been marked as R.

 

The possible reason why your opening balance is different is that the account wasn't set up or with the right balance. It could also be due to voided, deleted, or modified transactions that were previously cleared and reconciled.

 

Furthermore, with regard to your concern about selecting multiple transactions to undo reconciliation, this is only possible if you are using QuickBooks Online Accountant. Otherwise, you'll need to manually undo the reconciliation for each transaction.

 

Moreover, I'm adding these helpful articles as your reference in fixing other reconciling issues: 

 

 

Come back to this pos if you have more concerns and follow-up questions about reconciling your accounts in QuickBooks Online. I'm always here to lend a helping hand. Keep safe!

Despite being marked "solved" yours is solution.  

Just let us un-reconcile our own accounts !

How to unreconcile a monthly statement that has already by reconciled?

Hello there, @SlowEddie. You can manually unreconcile your transactions in QuickBooks Online (QBO), and I'm here to show you how.

 

If you have no accountant to undo your reconciliation all at once, don't worry. You can do it on your own by manually removing the reconciled status in the chart of accounts. 

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Go to the Gear icon and select Chart of Accounts.
  2. Look for the account and select View Register.
  3. Find the transaction. The letter in the checkmark column indicates reconciled. Click the box to expand the view.
  4. Keep selecting the box under the checkmark column until it becomes empty. Doing so removes the transaction from the reconciliation.
  5. Once done, click Save.

 

Moreover, QBO generates a reconciliation report after you finish reconciling.

 

Please don't hesitate to reach out to the Community forum if you need further assistance with reconciliation. We're always here to help. Take care.
