If a posting has been reversed, the item on the Bank Reconciliation shows on the same side but has a minus in front of it. For example, if it is a Nominal Receipt, the reversal shows as a minus credit.
​
The Bank Reconciliation can sometimes have reversals that don't have the original entry to reconcile against,
If this is the case please check the below details:

  • Take a look at the original transaction and drill down into the posting on the Accounts Ledger to see what bank rec this was reconciled on.

  • Once you find the bank reconciliation statement number, look at what went through the bank statement to see if some money was transferred to reconcile.

  • If no money was transferred, then check what transactions were on the Cash book that the transaction could be reconciled with.

  • If money was transferred then this will need transferring back for the reversal. If there was an incorrect posting that the transaction was reconciled with then a correction will need to be done to rectify why the two items were reconciled together.
