I also typically use the date I initiate the transaction and generally do not change the GC date to match bank statements (although I usually note in the description when the bank posted a transaction). However, now I am facing a problem that I’m not certain this thread has addressed. I initiated a transaction on one day that just happened to be the day prior to a bank statement, and that statement did not include the transaction. Going through the GC reconciliation process, I find that the GC balance cannot match the bank balance because the former has included the transaction and the latter has not. To complete the reconciliation, I am forced to change the GC transaction date until some time following the bank statement date. Is that the correct way to handle this or is there some other option that I am not thinking of? Thanks for your help.
