Yes, Gina. It's an issue that can arise during bank reconciliations wherein, closing balance in the previous period doesn't match the opening balance of the next period. This is due to deleted/edited past transactions, duplicate entries, or incorrect opening balance setup. In order to fix this, you need to run a discrepancy report to look for changes in the reconciled transaction.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Go to Reports.
  2. Type Audit Log in the search box, then click on it to run the report.
  3. Search for transactions that were deleted, modified, or added in previous periods.

 

Once the discrepancies are identified, the necessary adjustments can be made within the system, and the reconciliation process can proceed smoothly.
