How do I enter outstanding checks from prior FY and old accounting system.

We started QB July 1, 2013 with our new FY.  We had outstanding checks from the old system.  How do I record those?  How do I add the cash into the bank account to cover those checks that are outstanding so I can reconcile the bank statements?

Enter the opening balance in the bank account as of a statement ending date on or before your QB start date.
Then enter everything that is outstanding in your bank account register. everything which will eventually clear.

I get information from clients and I enter from their check stubs and deposit receipts.  We were usng CSA and had to switch to Quickbooks.   I have outstanding checks that I have and some are dated back to 2014.  How do I enter these so that I can have these rolling forward each month.
