I am working with Quicken Home and Business 2004

I deleted some reconciled deposits. I re-entered them and clicked in
the clear column until the R was back up. Now my opening balance is
off.

I can I fix this?

Can I just enter in the correct opening balance because I know
everything is correct and that is what the balance should be.

Is there a way to fix this?

I keep seeing that there is a supposed to be a resolve but I can't
find it.

Please help me! We have been working on this for four days.
Thanks
Carrie

Hi, Carrie.

Are these downloaded transactions, or all manually entered?

Do you mean the opening balance of the account, or the opening balance of the
reconciliation.

If it's the opening balance of the account, you've entered transactions which
pre-date the opening balance transaction. Fix those dates, and that will fix the
opening balance.

If it's the opening balance of the reconciliation, I would ignore it. Quicken
recalculates the opening balance from the transactions it knew were reconciled,
but you deleted some of them. Simply reconcile so the closing balance is correct
and there is no reconciliation difference. That should bring you back up to
date.

so if i am understanding this correctly when hit reconcile and the
opening balance is off it lists one amount and the paper statement
says another. so should i delete the incorrect number and put in the
right one? then enter the closing balance from the paper statement?
am i understanding this correctly?

this month i deleted some checks that were used to pay invoices and
had been reconciled in 2005. i re-entered them and when to the
checking account and clicked on it until the c and then R came up. i
thought it would make it reconcile it. but instead when i started the
end of the month paperwork the opening balance was off.
