Each time you finish reconciling, QuickBooks Online will automatically generate a reconciliation report for that session. The reconciliation report is useful if you have trouble reconciling the following month and when you meet with your accountant.
The reconciliation report summarises the following:
- Statement beginning balance
- Cheques and payments cleared
- Deposits and other credits cleared
- Adjustments made
- Statement ending balance
