[Former Member]

Hi

How do i get all my unpresented cheques in a previous years reconciliation which are likey to clear in the current year for bank account i am doing reconciliation for the current year. eg I entered the closing balance of a GT bank account =20000 in 2012, as the opening balance as at 2013. Now i want to do a bank reconciliation for this bank account which had unpresented cheques in 2012. How do i get these unpresented cheques to show as i do my current bank reconciliation for Jan 2013.

Thanks

Hi,

When you did reconcile for the end of 2012, have you left the check open?

Thanks,

Reconciliation for this bank account at 2012 had been done in an old system which is been changed to SAP so the balance on the bank account at end of 2012 (in the old system)  was brought forward as opening balance for 2013 in SAP

Now I understand. In fact, if you want brought those open checks, your opening balance must be break down by those detailed documents. Only one amount is not good enough. You may change the opening balance by adding those checks and adjust the original OB balance.
