How do you fix an uncategorised split?

I have limited knowledge of Reckon Accounts Home and Business. I have just this started new job which has this system.

How do you fix the uncategorised split?

I need to correct this to print the reconciliation.

Thanks in advance, Debbie

What is the total of the expense as it does not match the split amounts

Hi Gerhard,

The total amount is $2653.11

I have copied the previous person's work and as it's business income the GST payment code is put in, I have found the split automatically changes with the payment code after I enter the full payment in.

The problem I have is when the Shell fleet fee is put in and entered it duplicates on line below and comes up uncatergorised.

Hi @meeniyanss

Reckon may show “uncategorised split” if transactions in the bank account are split between categories but not fully assigned. This prevents the report from displaying properly.

To fix, try to identify the problem transaction by going to:

1. Go to Banking → Bank Register (or your bank account)
2. Look for any transactions marked as “Split” or “Uncategorised”
3. Click on the transaction to expand the split details

Reckon requires all split lines to have an account; leaving even one uncategorised will flag the transaction. You need to assign categories:

1. For each line in the split:
   • Choose the correct expense or income account from the dropdown
   • Ensure all portions of the transaction are assigned
2. Click Record to save changes

Once done, recheck reconcilation:

1. Go to Banking → Reconcile
2. Check that all transactions now have categories assigned
3. The “uncategorised split” warning should no longer appear

Then, try to print reconciliation report:

1. After all splits are categorised, go to Reports → Banking → Reconciliation Report
2. Select the account and period
3. Click Print (or Preview)

The report should now generate without any uncategorised split errors.

I hope this helps!
