Join nowI have a transaction (see attached image) that occurred prior to my opening balance for QB. I am not able to reconcile it as it actually appeared on my last statement in 2017. However, it was used in the reporting for 2018, so I don’t want to just delete it.
I believe I need to make some sort of adjustment that will cancel it out. How is this done?
