Reset previously reconciled transactions (mini-reconciliation)

After deleting and reentering transactions that have been previously reconciled, the reentered transactions are no longer reconciled.QuickBooks flags transactions internally with the reconciliation date in order to generate reports of previous reconciliations. For QuickBooks to recognize reentered transactions as reconciled, the transactions must be reconciled in the reconciliation window. This is sometimes referred to as a mini-reconciliation.

To reconcile re-entered transactions:

   1. Determine the total dollar amount of transactions you deleted and reentered.
   2. Select the Banking menu and select Reconcile.
   3. Subtract or add (depending on the effect the transaction originally had on the balance of the register) the amount of reentered checks or charges from the amount displayed as the Beginning Balance in the Begin Reconciliation window.
   4. Enter the amount from step 3 in the Ending balance field.
   5. Click Continue to open the Reconcile window.
   6. Check only the reentered transactions you need to reconcile.
   7. Ensure the Difference is 0.00.
   8. Click Reconcile Now.
   9. Select to Display or Print the reconciliation report.

Note: Unless your accountant instructs you to use a specific date, a good date to use for a mini-reconciliation is an off-cycle date in the previously reconciled statement period.
