Sent my client a check for $2866.50. They deposited it as $2886.50. My banky posted a deposit correction of $20. How do I reconcile the check sent and deposit correction?

I'm glad to help reconcile the check sent and the deposit correction in QuickBooks, rachel.braly.

You can make a bank deposit of $2886.50 and enter add a line with the amount of -$20.00. That way, the deposit will match the check you've sent to your client.

Let me show you how to do it.

1. Click + New, then select Bank Deposit.
2. From the Account ▼ drop-down, choose the account you want to put the money into.
3. Make sure the total of the selected transactions matches your deposit slip. Use your deposit slip as a reference.
4. Scroll down to the Add funds to this deposit section.
5. Enter the fee as a line item.
6. Select who the fee was from (the bank that made the bank correction).
7. Select Bank Charges from the Account ▼ drop-down. Select + Add New from the Account drop-down. On the account creation window, select Expenses as the account type and Bank Charges as the detail type. Give the account a simple name like “Bank correction.”
8. Enter the amount fee as a negative number (-$20.00).
9. Review the deposit total with the bank fee.
10. Select Save and close.

Now you can start reconciling your bank account to ensure transactions in QuickBooks matches with what you have from the actual bank.
