Reconciliation of Transfer Transactions

Hi, 

I am reconciling bank statements for my client dating all the way back to 2014. He does not have bank statements for all months from that year, but had an excel sheet with manually exported statements. Most of the bank transactions were entered into QBO manually and not through bank feeds. 

Although most transactions are reconciling, there are a few transfer transactions between his checking and savings account which I'm able to reconcile for one account but not for the other. Attaching screenshots of both bank register with one such transaction for better understanding. 

Please help understand why this could be happening and how to resolve the same. Thank you!

Good morning, Vedika.

 

Thanks so much for contacting the Community for support. I want to make sure you're able to help your client with their reconciliation in QuickBooks Online.

 

Discrepancies can appear during the reconciliation process for a variety of reasons. Reasons such as duplicate entries and most commonly - beginning balance issues.

 

Here's how you can get this fixed:

 

1. Review the original opening balance.
2. Check your bank statement and ensure you're reconciling the correct account for the month.
3. Match and categorize downloaded transactions.
4. Review any discrepancy reports.

 

I'm linking a few articles that cover how to fix any problems you come across while reconciling an account:
