Hi, I got a bunch of credit card statements correctly reconciled, then something got messed up. Maybe changes I made to transactions in the checking account (such as payments made to pay down credit card balance) messed up the credit card account.
But now when I go to re-reconcile the credit card, the "Reconcile Information" / "Starting Balance" is wrong. Where does that number come from? After I reconcile a credit card statement, on the last day of that statement period, I put a final transaction, for example on 10/14/24 "This statement covered 9/15/24 - 10/14/24, the correct balance at this point is $4,567.89." I do this to help me find the problem when balances get messed up. But this doesn't help me with the "Starting Balance" problem. And if GnuCash has the Starting Balance wrong, I can confirm the transactions that paid down the balance and transactions where I purchased items, but GnuCash (correctly?) won't let me mark the statement period as reconciled. I guess the Starting Balance is wrong because, while I may be going back to reconcile a Feb-Mar statement, there are Mar-Apr, and May-Jun transactions that are reconciled (which therefore don't even show up in the reconcile window). Would I have to go to my ledger and manually un-check all the Mar-Apr, May-Jun, and Jun-Jul transactions which are marked "Y" reconciled, just to get a correct Starting Balance for Feb-Mar. And then later manually re-check them all?
