Accountant's Copy not holding bank rec.

Has anyone ever had an issue with QB Desktop not holding past bank recs after a client sends an accountant's copy? My firm has a client that when he sends over his accountant's copy, all of the bank recs, back to 2016 disappear. We keep record, of course, but this is a pain and very time consuming every single time. 

 

Has anyone else had this issue?

I'm here to help check why the 2016 bank reconciliation isn't showing up on the Accountant's copy, SLund26.

 

You can start by checking with the client to select a dividing date that will include 2016 reconciliations.

 

There are limitations in terms of reconciliation. Check out this link for insights: Use the Accountant's Copy, then, go to the Accountant's Copy limitations. This link also provides related articles as a guide when processing Accountant's Copy in QuickBooks. 

 

Let me know if you have follow-up questions by commenting below. I'll be around to provide the additional information.

This year again I lost 4 months of reconciliations after receiving the Accountant's copy back after the end of FY.  Can QB not fix this problem???  How do I avoid this issue next year?

Hi there, @IP1966.

 

I understand the importance of receiving the Accountant's Copy with a complete number of transactions reconciled in the file. However, please know that reconciliations performed in an Accountant's Copy are limited to 800 transactions. If the number of transactions reconciled exceeds 800, then the reconciliation won't import into the client file.

 

I recognize how having the option to receive the same number of reconciled transactions from your accountant can be advantageous for your business and help maintain accurate records. Therefore, we can forward this concern to our product development team by sending them direct feedback. This will allow us to better understand our customer's needs for the application.

 

Here’s how:

 

  1. At the top, select the Help menu.
  2. Choose Send Feedback Online then click Product Suggestion.
  3. Type in your feedback or feature request.
  4. Click the Send Feedback button.
