Reconciling GL accounts other than bank accounts

Hi ... I wanted to mark a couple of GL accounts in the balance sheet to be available for reconciling but I can't see how I can do that. Are reconciliations only available for bank accounts and linked accounts now? It's been a while since I have wanted to make a change like this, but we have several GL accounts that are in the reconciliation list that aren't bank accounts or linked accounts so I know we USED to be able to make these changes and that I'm not imagining it!

Can anybody point me towards the setting?

Thanks,

Roxy.

Hi RoxyAtButtery,

The functionality to reconcile General Ledger (GL) accounts that are not bank or linked accounts has indeed been removed. Historically, we focused on providing reconciliation features primarily for bank and linked accounts.

I hope this helps!

Regards,
Earl

Hey RoxyAtButtery,

Reconciliations are primarily designed for bank accounts and linked accounts. This means that the reconciliation feature isn't available for General Ledger accounts that aren't classified as bank or linked accounts.

Best regards,

Doreen

  Thanks Doreen - we do have other GL accounts that we are currently reconciling that aren't bank or linked accounts which is why I was getting confused. So just double checking that this used to be something that could be done, but for whatever reason this functionality was removed from being able to be added to additional GL accounts? I'm okay either way ... I just need to know how to explain it to my manager.
