How do I amend a previously reconciled bank statement in Reckon Accounts Personal Plus. Unfortunately I signed off the account without it reconciling and now my carry forward figure is incorrect.
Where do I find these reconciliations?

    Hi Chaswallawn,

    You will be able to amend the opening balance for the current reconciliation - just enter in the correct opening balance.

    You will get a prompt to state this does not match your last closing reconciliation balance, however you can override this and continue with this reconciliation. I believe this is more so just a prompt to notify you that something may have changed however it will not stop you from completing this reconciliation. 

    Let me know how get on

    Cheers
    Rav

    Hi Chaswallawn,

    If i remember correctly there is also a way of 'undoing' your reconciliation and starting again. In the account that your reconciled, you will see that all the items that have been reconciled will be marked with an "R" in the CLR column. The "R" indicates that that item is reconciled, and stops that item appearing in further reconciliations, The CLR column is tagged with a "C" for items that are currently being reconciled but that have not been as yet finalised. You can untage all the transactions for the date range of your reconciliation, and then redo the reconciliation again. I prefer this to allowing an adjustment factor being applied to the account. Note that a) you must get the date range correct when you untag the reconciliation CLR column b) you will need to click the "R" values twice i.e. "R" click to "C" click to untagged c) each time you change the value in the CLR column you will be prompted in a message box to use the Reconciliation Routine - answer no and if you want tag that message box not to reappear. Best of luck.

    Rav,
    If I use the carry forward balance generated by Reckon I show a difference of $278. If I amend the carry forward balance to what it should have been, I show an error in the carry forward balance of $278 and an unreconciled error of $278. I am lost!
    Does this mean that I proceed with with this option which will show that it does not balance.
