Split previous transaction

Hello there, @comet52.

I've got some insights to share with you about handling split transactions in QuickBooks Online.

To avoid a transaction from being duplicated if you un-match then split it, you'll have to re-match it after saving it. I can show you how:

To undo transaction:

1. Open the Baking menu, then select the Banking tab.
2. Choose the bank account you want to work with.
3. Go to the Categorized tab.
4. Locate the transaction and click on UNDO.

After that, stay on the Banking page and follow these steps to re-match it:

1. Go to the For Review tab.
2. Locate the transaction to match then click it,
3. Match it to the split transaction then click on Match.

In case you'll have further questions specific to accounting or your register especially reconciled transactions, I suggest getting in touch with your accountant. They'll be able to look into this further and give you the best resolution to your issue.

For future use, read these articles about managing transactions in QBO:

• Enter a split transaction into the register
• Categorize and match online bank transactions in QuickBooks Online

That just rematches it as a rent check and the electric is no longer categorized.  The split got lost.

Let me guide you on what you can do with your split transaction, comet52.

Any changes made to your reconciled transaction such as editing or deleting may affect your books. You'll want to make the changes directly from those transactions that were already reconciled. You can undo the reconciliation and edit the transaction that wasn't split yet. 

1. Go to the Gear menu and choose Chart of Accounts.
2. Look for the bank where you're reconciled transactions belong.
3. Click View register.
4. From there, you'll see reconciled transactions marked as R under the Check column. 
5. To undo them, you have to repeatedly click the box to change the status to Blank (unreconciled). 
   
6. Once done, select Save. 

Then, you can reconcile those transactions after editing them. In connection to this, you can delete those transactions that you no longer need and weren't reconciled yet. You can click the Delete button to remove duplicates. I've attached a screenshot for your guide.
