Sorry for top posting. Checked the transaction report items. One is Reconciled Date. That date matches the bank statement date on which it was reconciled. How does that report get that date per transaction if the field doesn't exist? On Fri, Feb 8, 2019, 17:52 Christopher Lam On 9/2/19 7:49

I've been experimenting and I think there's a logic error in your thinking -- *during* reconciliation, until it's complete, all 'reconciled' transactions are labelled 'cleared'. Reconciled transactions are, so to speak, gone and don't need to be shown on a reconciliation report. My conclusion

Unfortunately it's very difficult to understand the target report. It would be much better to have a tiny test datafile - 10 amounts per account, of various reconciliation states. I suggest a test datafile as follows: 1. BANK * 01-jan-19 $1.00 reconciled * 03-jan-19 $10.00 reconciled * 05

Thank you for detailed algorithm. I'll see about that over next week. We may have to limit the report to one account for various reasons, but will try avoid this. If you have the time and inclination, a test datafile, with crafted but realistic amounts, is very welcome. Perhaps about 10 trans

Some additional thoughts. In the summary listing at the top of the report, in addition to the last-reconcile-date and fixing the existing amount columns, add one final column which is the account ending balance (which should match the check register or sum of all check registers for that account).
