Normally the only way a reconciled transaction becomes unreconciled is if the split to the account which has been reconciled is editied, either in the register for the reconciled account or in another register conatining the split from the reconciled account to that registers. The splits of a transaction can be edited from any register for any account which contains splits to it from the transaction. In V3.4 editing details (description, memo) other than the amount, date and account does not affect the reconciliation flag status. You will normally get a dialogue indicating that you are editing a reconciled split.
I think earlier versions of GnuCash may have also changed the status when other splits and any information in a reconciled transaction were edited were edited but I am unsure of this and when only editing specific fields in the reconciled split triggered changing of the status was introduced. The easiest way to fix this is to rerun the reconciliation process for periods covering the earliest unreconciled transaction forward, checking that opening balances, closing balances and transaction amounts agree with the statements. GnuCash will often start the reconciliation window with some transactions marked even if that period has not been previously reconciled as it attempts to identify transactions which lead to a reconciliation. I have been caught believing this in the past and I now clear (uncheck) all transactions in the reconciliation window and match them individually by hand. Tedious but it can pick up 2 errors cancelling each other out so that the opening and closing balances are OK but the transactions are incorrect. Any unreconciled transaction should show up in the reconciliation procedure window as unchecked with any already reconciled splits being initially checked which can help identify the unreconciled transactions David Cousens. ----- David Cousens -- Sent from: http://gnucash.1415818.n4.nabble.com/GnuCash-User-f1415819.html _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list [email protected] To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user If you are using Nabble or Gmane, please see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Mailing_Lists for more information. ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
