If you do not reconcile
If your check register is
not meticulously correct, a slightly
different approach works. You can go
back a month, and enter the beginning balance
and all the transactions shown during the
month. Any previously outstanding checks
should also be entered. Then, at the
end of that month, look for any old checks
that have not cleared. The final step
is to force a reconciliation, where
QuickBooks will allow an adjusting
entry. This has to be done only
once. Then, with accurate data entry,
the account stays in balance.
