Hi,
I have been using GnuCash for many years. I am not a sophisticated user,
and primarily use it to keep track of my checking account. I reconcile
monthly, and once every few years I’m off by a few cents or dollars. Today I
reconciled the account and I was off by 70.10. I unchecked every entry and
stared at it for a while. I think I may have exited reconciling, but not
completed. There were many c’s in the reconcile column. I stared at the
reconciliation for a while and found that there were two entries for 70.10. I
deleted one, and repeated the reconciliation. I am not off by over $11,000. I
keep track of my Accounts.gnucash file with git, so I can recover the previous
version from 2 weeks ago. When I open that file, I see no c’s in the reconcile
column. When I repeat the reconciliation process, I am still getting an
$11,000 error. It seems something is being remembered. I found some on-line
threads that suggest that the previous balance is not correct, and that makes
sense, but I don’t want to do something like that without some understanding of
what happened.
Can anybody tell me what might have happened and point me to a resource on
how to fix it? Thank you, John.
