Deleted Cheque Transaction from Bank Register

TracyL2

Hi Champs

 

I've deleted a Cheque Transaction from the Bank Register in error, and of course when I go to Reconcile Accounts I'm OOB.

The transaction is one that was reconciled on 2 Jan 2020! 

I've checked the Reconcilation Report and now have an outstanding cheque amount of that amount that's OOB.

How do I put it back?  

Can I record the transaction again as a SPEND MONEY item for that date or is there another way to fix?

 

Appreciate your help

Hi @TracyL2 

 
I would recommend just re-entering the transaction as per normal. For example, if it was initially recorded via Spend Money just re-renter a Spend Money transaction, if it was a Pay Bill re-enter a Pay Bill.

 

The only thing that I could foreseeable being a potential issue would be the date of that transaction. In theory, you should be able to record that transaction. If you are able to, you could look at undoing all those reconciliations, reconciling that transaction with that reconciliation, and then re-reconciling up to that current point. Alternatively, just include that transaction in your next reconciliation.

If you are not able to enter that transaction with that older date, likely due to a financial year rollover, the recommendation would be to enter the transaction with a current date or the first date of the financial year. You would want to speak to your accounting advisor as to the implications of that account. Just include that transaction in your next reconciliation.
