When I reconcile I notice some transactions are already check off as cleared. I do NOT want that to happen. Is there a setting to stop this?

Hi there, Lpollock.

Typically, when you match downloaded transactions to the entries you created in QuickBooks Online, it will automatically clear them and display the letter C under the Reconcile and Banking Status column. You'll want to manually unclear it by clicking the blank field repeatedly until the C isn't shown.

Also, you may have made a banking rule for your transactions. This causes them to be reconciled automatically and check off as cleared. To fix this, you can remove the bank rule by clicking the Delete in the Actions column on the Rules page.
