Hi All. I'm not very well versed when it comes to accounting so I have a question about a scenario that my accounting manager asked me to help with. We had 3 journal entries (one from Jan, Feb & March) that were entered incorrectly. The manager decided it would be easier to delete these entries and re-enter them (back dated). The problem is that now, these new entries appear as if they need to be reconciled. All we want to do is mark them reconciled and move on. It’s about marking these new JE’s that hit the bank account as CLEARED (already reconciled) so they don’t show as an item pending reconciliation. This happened once before with a reconciling prior period entry and we figured it out back then, so I know there is a way. Thanks!

Are you using the Match Bank Data and Reconcile Account Statement Pages option for this account? I.e. the new bank reconciliation process they pushed everyone to a little while back. This probably isn't super helpful, but you used to be able to just tick a checkbox on the account register as long as you had an admin role before that process. Doesn't seem like that's still the case with the new bank matching reconciliation process. I know it is possible to turn off the match bank data by unchecking that on the account record and then you should be able to do that on the account register, but I'm unclear if that would have any other implications so I'd do some research/testing before proceeding along those lines.
