I know how disruptive it can feel when you're simply trying to make minor adjustments that turn into time-consuming tasks, mbecker1313.
In QuickBooks Online, when you edit a reconciled transaction, whether it’s updating the description, changing the Chart of Accounts (COA) code, or making any adjustments, you’ll see that pop-up message. This is intended to maintain accuracy.
Even though changes to descriptions or COA codes don’t directly impact the transaction amount, QuickBooks flags any modifications to reconciled transactions as a safeguard.
