Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi there, Brea4.
Editing reconciled transactions can cause discrepancies on your previous and next reconciliation balances balance. I suggest reaching out to an accountant so they can help you manage the reconciled transaction so it won't mess up your books.
If you need to edit the transaction, you can follow these steps:
You can go back to the register and manually reconcile the transaction by clicking the Reconciliation status column to, then click Save.
Once done, try to reconcile the new month and check if there are any other issues. If there are any discrepancies, you can check this article to help you fix them: Fix issues for accounts you've reconciled in the past in QuickBooks Online.
Let me know if there's anything else I can assist you with. Post a comment below, and I'll be sure to get back to you.

Since you're asked for a password when unreconciling transactions, it's possible that your user access is limited.
If you're not the admin of the account, I suggest reaching out to the admin and ask to grant you a permission to make changes with reconciliation.

What if the bank feed went to wrong account can I transfer the charge to correct account but it’s doing the opposite of the correct change
Hello there, @Learning 100. Welcome to the Community.
Let's go to the Banking or Transactions menu to transfer your bank feed transactions to the correct account so you can keep your accounts updated in QuickBooks Online (QBO).
Before we start, can you provide more information on why transferring the charge to the correct account is doing the opposite instead of correcting it? Any additional details are a great help in providing you with the appropriate fix for this matter.
You'll have to make sure you review and categorize downloaded transactions before adding them to your register. This way, you can keep your financial data accurate and updated. Since you want to transfer your bank feed transactions to the correct account, you need to select the right one in the Category field. Here's how:
In case you want to review matched or added bank feed transactions, please see Step 3 in this article: Categorize and match online bank transactions in QuickBooks Online.
Also, I encourage you to reconcile your accounts in QBO regularly (every month). This helps monitor your income and expense transactions and detect any possible errors accordingly. You may want to check out this article as your reference to guide you in doing and fixing reconciliations in QBO: Learn the reconcile workflow in QuickBooks.
If there's anything else you need or if you have other banking concerns and questions about managing transactions in QBO, I'm always ready to help. Take care, @Learning 100.
The transaction I want to unreconciled is link to a split payment. If I unreconcile just the one transaction will it just have that amount left that I unreconciled in the bank to reconcile? hope that makes sense.
Summary
I paid amex card $3500 which was 5 bills one which was selected incorrectly and should have been another bill
Thanks for this information.
I'm auditing a full year in QuickBooks (desktop) to correct errors. Will the change you suggested doing to change a category be tracked somewhere (general ledger?), so that others would be able to see what I've changed?
Thank you. Mickey
If I follow the information to make changes to a reconciled transaction, is there some report I can print to show the changes that I make?

Thanks for sharing the steps you've performed. To help you with this, you can pull up the Audit Log report. Here's how:

Hello, I am working on QB desktop and I need to post a payment to an invoice where the month was already reconciled and it was reconciled back in July of 2022 leaving a balance of $283.20 and customer verified that check was indeed sent and cashed by our company. I am cleaning up AR, just started here a few months ago.
I don't see the Gear icon. I'm using desktop, not QB Online...not sure if that matters.
Thank you. Mickey

I have a transaction that was reconciled in the wrong month, how to fix that?
I’d be glad to assist you with unreconciling previous statements so they will not throw off your records, rharvey1971.
You can use the Undo a reconciliation feature for QuickBooks Online Accountant. It will help you unbind the entire reconciliation from within the register. See this guide for the steps: Undo a client’s reconciliation in QuickBooks Online Accountant.
Otherwise, manually unreconcile each transaction if using other versions. Here are the steps:
I also recommend consulting with your accountant before performing any of these. They can help you decide or provide another method according to your situation.
