The Reconcile Accounts window should be displayed.
Note: If you're reconciling for the first time
If you've never used the Reconcile Accounts window before, there are some special steps that you should perform before you begin the reconciliation process. If this is your situation, see To reconcile an account for the first time using Accounting Plus. |
Note: Be sure to enter the ending balance!
Many bank statements have more than one balance on them. Be sure to enter the balance of your account at the end of the period. |
Note: Use care when entering the date in the Reconcile Accounts window
The Reconciliation Report enables you to view the status of an account's transactions as of a previous reconciliation date. If the bank statement date you enter in the Reconcile Accounts window is different from the date that appears on the actual statement you received from your bank, you may find it difficult to determine which date should be used to print the Reconciliation Report in the future. |
Note: You may edit, remove or reverse entries using this window
If the transaction information displayed in the Reconcile Accounts window is incorrect, you can choose to click the zoom to display the original transaction entry window. |
Note: You must finish reconciling after you print the Reconciliation Report!
If you choose to print the Reconciliation Report, be sure to click the Reconcile button again in the Reconcile Accounts window. When you choose to print the report, the reconciling process is stopped, and you must click Reconcile again to complete the process. |
