The purpose of the Checkbook Reconciliation Record View is to identify all the checkbook transactions that have cleared the bank. From here, users can start a new reconciliation, assign all the transactions that are being reconciled (cleared), and edit the cleared amount of specific transactions if necessary. When a Reconciliation is Posted, the checkbook balance is updated and the Checkbook Transactions Inquiry is updated with the reconciliation information. Checkbook reconciliations do not make journal entries when posted.
