ALLOCATING A JOB NAME TO TRANSACTION AFTER RECONCILIATION

[Possum2]

Hi,

Just wondering if anyone knows if there is a work around for allocating a job name after reconciliation? When I allocate a job name to a reconciled transaction the transaction is then unreconciled.  I bookkeep for a NFP and allocate a job name to donations for special purpose, so that I can easily identify what I need to transfer to a different account and also for reporting purposes.   I have fixed the issue now by updating my recurring transaction, but would like to know in case it crops up again.

Thanks in advance for your advice.

Hi @Possum2, 

Thanks for posting. 

My understanding is that you are editing the invoice by putting in job numbers, then under bank transactions that transaction unmatches itself. 

Generally, we complete all information then record the invoice. This ensures that when we finish allocating/matching and reconciling accounts we wouldn't need to edit anything. Here is a Help Article Jobs to know more information how to handle jobs. 

If you have any questions or need further assistance feel free to reply to this thread. 

Cheers,
