A Month is Missing on the Reconciliation Report for a Completely Reconciled Year

Hi. I reconciled all months for 2019 but for some reason the month of March 2019 did not show up in the reconciliation report. My tax lady couldn't find the problem so she said I should reconcile March 2019 again. However, QBO would not allow me to do so since the 2019 year showed as being completely reconciled. She suggested I reconcile March 2019 as March 2020 and see if it would help. It did not. I'm thinking that I need to unreconcile/rereconcile after February 2019. My concern is that my banks transactions that were matched to invoices might become ummatched. That would be a nightmare. Any help would be appreciated. I also checked the audit log and it showed nothing.

Hi there,

 

It's important you're able to reconcile the entire year of 2019 without any issues. I'll be glad to assist you with getting to the bottom of this. 

 

Based on what you've described, I recommend unreconciling your transactions and reconciling again while referencing your bank statements. It's essential you get a $0 balance in the end and QuickBooks helps simplify that process. You can undo a reconciliation by manually editing each transaction from the register. Before doing this, I recommend reaching out to your accountant for expert advice. If you're not in contact with one, I suggest searching for one on our site using this link here. Otherwise, follow the steps below to unreconcile each individual transactions:

 

   1. Select the Gear icon on the Toolbar.
   2. Under Your Company, select Chart of Accounts.
   3. Locate the appropriate account for the transaction.
   4. From the Action column, select Account History.
   5. Identify the transaction to edit.
   6. In the reconcile status column (indicated by a check mark), repeatedly select the top line of the transaction to change the status of the transaction.

        Codes indicate the status of the transaction:
             C - Cleared
             R - Reconciled
             Blank - Not cleared or reconciled

   7. Select Save.

 

Here are some helpful resources that'll help get you started so you can get ahead with your work:
