Bank reconciliation problem

Post by willsell »

I'm in the process of reconciling March bank rec.
I checked off all deposits and credits.
The bank account balance is correct but the to balance is 100.00
How do I make adjustment so that the to balance is o.o and the bank account balance reflects the ending balance on bank statement?

Are there any outstanding checks that you know of, perhaps a previous month's item that was not included or checked off ??

there are outstanding checks.
What Happens if I click "done" even though the To Balance is not 0?

You don't balance .... you'll have some transaction that was either 100.00 over or under what you really received or paid out.

The next step is to verify that what the bank shows as a transaction is what you have in Powerchurch. Since its an even 100, it may be an erroneous entry.

It could be a contributions deposit that had a check that was not paid due to lack of funds, something like that.
