Bank Reconciliation - Deleted Transaction

Hi,

I already reconciled my savings account when I realized one of my transactions should have been broken down to have different GL's and charged expenses. Now that it's reconciled, I can't go back to break it down. Any suggestions? Do I restore the reversed charge and than split out all the transactions under that lump sum charge?

Hi AESTexas,

 

I'll assist you in breaking down your single transaction so that the amounts are spread across different expense categories. However, You don't have to undo and split the charge because it's already reconciled, which means it shows in your bank statement as one big amount.

 

What you can do is Just open the transaction from the register and break the amounts into different categories. Just make sure the total amount stays the same.

 

To open the transaction from the bank register:

 

  1. Click the Gear icon and choose Chart of accounts.
  2. Choose View register on the register in concern.
  3. Click the transaction and choose Edit.
  4. In the Category detail section, select the different categories where the portions should be reported and enter the amount of each of them.
  5. Click Save and close.

 

Your reconciliation report will not be affected in this process because the amount hasn't changed.

 

Let me know if you have more questions about correcting your reconciled transaction. Take care and have a good one!

Thank you JessT

So the $4k I'm trying to break out is multiple vendors with different categories. I think I need to delete this transaction all together instead so I input each transaction for each vendor and the appropriate category. Is this possible after the bank account has been reconciled for the month?
