How do I use checkbook maintenance to adjust bank transactions?

You can use the Checkbook Maintenance feature to adjust bank transactions, changing dates, check numbers, and status (reconciled or unreconciled).

For example, a check to a vendor cleared the bank before the date of the payment in Breeze. (The check cleared the bank on 5/31, but the date in Breeze is 6/1.) If you are reconciling the bank account at the end of May, on 5/31, you need to change the date of the payment to match the bank statement.

To use checkbook maintenance

Go to Accounting > Banking > Checkbook Maintenance.

Complete the filter and click Display. (At a minimum, you must select an Item Type and a Bank.)

The screen displays the matching bank transactions.

You can make the following modifications to a bank transaction:

  • Change the transaction number.

  • Change the date.

  • Change the reconciliation status.

  • Change the reconciliation date.

When you are done, click Save.

Note: If you enter a duplicate reference number on a journal entry, it will cause issues with the bank reconciliation.
