Reconciliation Module Opening Balance Cannot Be Corrected /Why This Happens? JimBAgde 02-17-2008

Hello,

We are using QuickBooks 2007 Premiere with about six (6) account
registers within file DB .

We are having is an issue where when we open up the Reconciliation
Module for one specific Register, the Opening Balance though it was
previously Balanced, is now reflecting an Incorrect Opening Balance,
apparently as a result of a unknown deletion of a Cleared Deposit.

The main problem here is when the deletion is put back with the
correct amount and then re-cleared, the opening balance does not
update to reflect correct balance.

Look Forward To Hearing Any Thoughts On This.....Thank You JimB



PS--> Does any one know of any good (do it yourself,) corruption
correction programs just in case I do have this possibility?

--> And why this might happen?

Deleting a transaction & reentering it will cause it to show up on the
current reconciliation (even if you mark it as cleared in the register). If
you want to have a clean current recon, enter the prior period's ending date
& bank balance, clear the one transaction & reconcile.

Yes that is the problem essentially as any input or deletion (when
cleared) do not change the most current reconciliation beginning
balance? And it should? (There seems to be a data file corruption of
some sort?)

And yes indeed I know performing a one time ending (adding deposit or
payment,) adjustment to registry will also help balance the ending
total; (Creative Book Keeping!)

I know also that QK's will automatically allow for the adjustment of
the difference once completed.

Was hoping to nail down any possible DB corruptions and see if there
might be a program to help correct any of these concerns? Thank YOu
Again....Jim B @ A.g.d.e.

If you're concerened about DB corruptions, within QB select File,
Verify Data. You can also run File, Rebuild Data.

Yes Hi Michelle, Thank You!

Had "Verified" / "Rebuilt" and have the same results. Should
not the Opening Reconciliation Balance change when a deposit or
payment is cleared or un-cleared? What exactly (if you might know,)
would cause this?
