Hi, 

I have a bank that is not linked to my QB and I want to reconcile the bank and the transactions, how do I go about this. I know there is a way to do it, but I just can't seem to put my finger on it.

I'll share the steps on how to reconcile your account, @daphkv.

 

Here are the easy steps:

 

  1. Start with the first transaction on your statement.
  2. Go to Accounting, then select Reconcile.
  3. Find the same transaction in the Reconciliation window in QuickBooks.
  4. Compare the two transactions. If they match, put a tick next to the amount in QuickBooks. This marks it as reconciled.
  5. If a transaction doesn't appear on your statement but you see it in QuickBooks, don't put a tick.
  6. Compare each transaction on your statement with what's in QuickBooks.
  7. When you reach the end, the difference between your statement and QuickBooks should be $0.00. If it is, click Finish now.
