Please log in for more thread options Tara thanks for the help.
I guess my question comes downt to, if I want to reconcile from
January-July, I should enter the begining balance as the opening
balance of January 1, and the ending balance as the closing balnace of
June X (off bank statements, and then go through and clear transactions
as they appear on my statement?
Im using Quickbooks for Mac Pro 2006, and I dont see the sort by
cleared transactions options.
Again, thanks.
