Can I edit expense accounts after the bank reconciliation is already complete?

Hi there, sturzi-soleapowe.

Changing anything but the amount and the account on any transaction won't change its reconciliation status. You'll have to directly edit the reconciled transaction and change its category. 

Here's how:

1. Click Accounting from the left menu, then select Chart of Accounts.
2. Find the bank account from the list and click View register.
3. Locate and select the transaction you want to change, then hit Edit. 
4. Change the category or description, then click Save. 
5. Click Yes to confirm the changes.
6. Repeat the steps for the rest of the transactions you want to edit.
