Hello, we are a PEO company utilizing HR software for payrolls and other HR-related services. At the end of every month, we upload daily batch files to QB, consolidating daily expenses and incomes into a single entry in QuickBooks. So far, manual reconciliation between the bank and QB has worked well. Now, we are considering exploring bank reconciliation within QB. However, I have encountered an issue where I cannot uncheck uncleared items on the reconciliation page in QB since it was a single-day batch entry. I just wanted to inquire if there are any solutions available to resolve this issue.

No worries, help has arrived to ensure you can unclear or uncheck items on the reconciliation page in QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT), @Shanthi K.

 

First, ensure that your QBDT software is up to date. Sometimes, software updates include bug fixes that could resolve issues like this. This way, you'll have the latest features and fixes.

 

Here's how to update to the latest release:

 

  1. Navigate to the Update to the Latest Release page.
  2. Ensure your product is selected. If not, click on the Change link and choose your QuickBooks product.
  3. Click the Update button to download the update file.
  4. Select Setup Automatic Updates to learn how to set QuickBooks to automatically download and install the latest updates.

However, if the issue persists, I suggest utilizing the Verify and Rebuild tool. This helps find the most common problems in a company file. Let me show you how.

 

To Verify:

  1. Go to the Window menu and select Close All.
  2. Then, go to the File menu.
  3. Select Utilities.
  4. Click Verify Data.

 

To Rebuild:

  1. Go to the File menu.
  2. Select Utilities.
  3. Click Rebuild Data.

Also, if you need info from your past reconciliation to review or fix a current reconciliation, you may pull up a reconciliation report. For the detailed steps, please see this article: Get reports for previous reconciliations in QuickBooks Desktop.
