Uncleared checks and deposits

Hello, I'm new at working with QB Online and I reconciled for 2018. I show a $0 difference, but I still have uncleared deposits and checks. What do I need to do in order to check them off my list? Will these uncleared items affect my overall P&L?

    Thanks for dropping by, Cavecloth.

    I can share with you some information about uncleared deposits and checks in QuickBooks Online.

     

    The uncleared deposits and checks in QuickBooks Online are not yet cleared in your bank, so you can leave those transactions as is. You can filter the reconciliation page to show the cleared transactions only.

     

    Transactions that are cleared and uncleared will not affect your P&L since the report is accrual/cash basis.

      It should be mentioned that this would depend on how old the uncleared items.  If they are older than a week or 2 then they are probably errors.

      the "accrual/cash basis" reference makes no sense

        I'm glad to see you here in the Community, @orthosolutionsok.

         

        You'll need to mark these transactions as "C" to clear them again in your bank register. You can follow the steps provided by my colleague, @JenoP, to fix the uncleared in register.

         

        Before doing the steps, I'd also recommend seeking professional advice from your accountant about this. They'll be able to provide an option that suits your company setup.

         

        I've added an article for more information about reconciling an account for months or year-old transactions: Reconcile.

         

        Let me know in the comment section if you need further assistance. Have a good one.


        I also see numerous items that are uncleared transactions after successfully reconciling the bank account. I have looked at some of the suggestions to clear these, but here is my question. Is there a way to do this on a backup copy of the books, in case my changes don't work as I had planned? Thanks

        Thanks for joining this conversation, @cathymarietta99.

         

        If the two accounts receivables are still uncleared, so you can leave those transactions as is as mentioned by my colleague above. However, if they're already cleared or reconciled by still showing, I highly suggest contacting our Support team. They have tools that can pull up your account in a secure environment and investigate this further. They can also perform some troubleshooting steps to fix this for you.

         

        Here's how to reach them:

         

        1. In QuickBooks Online (QBO), click the Help (question mark) icon at the top right.
        2. Select Contact Us at the bottom to connect with our live support.

         

        Just in case, I'll add these articles for future reference:

         

         

        Please let me know how it goes or if you have any other issues or concerns. I want to make sure everything is taken care of for you. I'm always here to help. Have a great day!
