In the Ending Balance area, enter the date and balance for the first day of the period you are reconciling. You will find this amount on your bank statement.

Often when reconciling an account there are items from the last date of the statement period that are in fact not part of the reconciliation.. one unchecks them and the reconciliation works fine, but the side effect of this is that in the account register the unchecked item's status is changed from cleared to uncleared.. just because they were not part of the statement reconciliation the transactions' status from the bank should not change..

    Don't worry about the Cleared / Uncleared status of a transaction. 'Cleared' is just a flag that says 'this transaction has been processed (aka cleared) by the bank'.

    Next manual reconciliation this transaction will show up again. You may have to manually check it to include it in the process.

    Amazon hydrate spark. I'm a little puzzled about your statement that a transaction that already has the 'cleared' status is not part of the reconciliation date period.
    The only way that I can think of this event occurring is because you created a new transaction using a Memorized Payee List entry that erroneously 'marks a transaction as cleared'. If that's the case, edit the MPL entry and uncheck 'mark as cleared'.

    I automatically download transactions from my brokerage.. a purchase or sale on the last day of the statement period has not officially cleared and is not part of the statement..
    And the fact that a transaction has been processed by the bank should not be reset by the reconciliation process just because it is unchecked for purposes of reconciliation!

    I am using Quicken Mac Deluxe 2019. I usually reconcile my checking account and credit card accounts some days after the close of the statement period. In between the closing date and the date on which I reconcile, some transactions clear the bank, are downloaded to Quicken and are marked as cleared. When I reconcile, I have to un-clear these transactions to get the reconciliation to balance. It would be very helpful if Quicken would un-clear these transactions only for the purpose of reconciliation; otherwise I have to write down or remember these transactions and re-clear them in the register after the account has been reconciled.
    I had the same problem with Quickbooks Online when I was a church treasurer.
  • I use Quicken about every 4 months for the past 8 years or so. This is the first time the 'Reconcile' function has behaved this way and it is confusing. CLEARED should mean the check has cleared the bank, period! You should never just clear this flag for no reason. More importantly, to make this change and not tell anyone about it. Scary!!
