Correction of Bank Reconciliation
Permalink Closed


Hi,

I would be grateful if anybody could help me with a correction of bank reconciliation. 

I have just started using Sage and was asked to reconcile VISA credit card statement. I forgot to enter the end balance as a negative figure and ended having a difference. As I was pressed by my boss to do some other work I reconciled it despite the fact having a diffirence;(( Is there any way how to go back and correct the end balance?

Many thanks.

Jana

The end balance in the bank reconciliation is used as a reference only to allow you to easily check whether the bank does indeed reconcile. If, when the reconciliation was done, you are satisfied that the figures were correct, then there is no need to do anything with the bank reconciliation. If you are unsure though, you can go back into the bank reconciliation window, if the reconciled balance is the balance that you were wanting to reconcile to, then again, there is no need to do anything. If it does not, you can reconcile any transactions which were missed from the original reconciliation to clear the difference.

The only other option that you would have would be to either restore to a backup taken prior to the reconciliation having been done, and re-do the reconciliation (you would also need to re-process any other work done since the backup was taken); or you can go into Error Corrections, and remove the bank reconciliation flag from the transactions, so that you can re-do the reconciliation without needing to re-process any other work.


From info given, I believe you have reconciled without using the paid amount which would balance to £0.00. You could do another bank reconcile for the amount paid and balance off a £0.00
