When I reconcile an account, any imported transactions that have “cleared” (downloaded from bank) but don’t appear on the statement are UNcleared.
This is a royal pain as the only way I have found to avoid this issue is to ensure that the Statement Date used EXACTLY covers ONLY the transactions on the statement and no more. To do this, any scheduled transactions that are not on the statement yet have to pushed into the future. Some times this is OK, sometimes this causes me other issues with dates/schedules.
Hi there – Thanks for your post! I think you’re saying you’re unchecking transactions on the Reconcile screen since they’re not on your statement. As a result, they’re no longer marked as Cleared when you view then in your Account’s view.
I can see why that’s annoying and confusing – but, yes, when you unclear a transaction on the Rec screen, that new status will carry over to other screens, meaning you will need to re-clear those transactions afterwards.
For now, I’ll add your feedback to our tracker. Let me know if I’ve misunderstood you!
You are correct. This would be less of a problem if the transaction import process would just MARK these as cleared next time I import them. Instead, it uses a different mechanism to determine if transactions have been imported already, treating the transactions that were cleared in the Rec screen as “already imported”. Different = not the cleared status of the transaction.
In the end, this is what breaks the overall workflow.
