Can I reconcile starting with the current bank statement if I have not reconciled the last 2 years? I mainly use it to itemize for taxes but want to use QB to the fullest

Not sure how to move forward. Do I need to go back for the last two years and reconcile each month? Or can I start now?

It's not feasible to reconcile only the current bank statement without addressing the reconciliation of the past two years, Kael.

 

You need to review and reconcile the transactions from the past years to ensure your business finances are accurate. Addressing previously overlooked transactions will help correct cash flow discrepancies, which is critical since unresolved financial issues can affect your business's growth and operations.

 

Once you begin reconciling, you can view a summary of your previous reconciliations by running a Reconciliation Report in QBO.
