Since there is no way to view the reconciliation dates of transactions and it rarely matters later, if at all, the easiest thing to do is to ignore the error in the starting balance as long as you have entered the missing transaction(s) and reconcile them in the current reconciliation to get to the correct reconciled balance.
The much more difficult solution would be to try to mark all of last month's transactions as unreconciled and repeat last month's reconciliation before doing this month's reconciliation. I think the choice is easy for most users unless they have severe OCD. David Carlson On Tue, Jul 9, 2019, 7:48 AM Maf.
