    HI 

    I ve just finished doing all that already.

    I noticed the problem was that I wasn't taking the future dated transactions into account so it's all okay for now. The Chart of Accounts was throwing me off because it takes everything into account, including the future dated transactions.

Hi HoneySandra,

 

It's interesting how your accounts list data do not match your other reports. I recommend checking the dates of the reports you run to see if it matches. Also, you can click the values in the report to see where those values came from. 

 

Let us know if you need more help with this. 

 

Thanks,
Genreve

It actually has nothing to do with reports. All the reports I currently check have the correct bank balance. It's in my chart of accounts list. When I do a transaction search, it shows the correct balance. When I click into the Accounts List, its shows all my current balances of all my accounts and this is where that bank account is wrong.

 

Upon further checking, I noticed that I accidentally forgot to reconcile via bank feeds for a few months and when I go into the Reconcilation Tool, the wrong balance is sitting there again. So, do I have to go back and Undo all my Recs until my bank feeds are cleared?

    Hi there HoneySandra,

     

    You can definitely undo your bank reconciliation to help identify and correct the incorrect figures. This process can be quite useful in pinpointing where things might have gone off track. To undo a reconciliation, go to the Reconciliation Tool and select the reconciliation you want to undo. This will allow you to go back and review the transactions, ensuring everything matches up correctly. Once you've undone the necessary reconciliations, you can re-reconcile them with the correct bank feeds.

     

    Best regards,

    Doreen
