If it is proving too hard to find the missing £10 payment,  I'd just put one in 
today with notes about "missing transaction. don't know where or when"  and 
reconcile it in due course - either a special 1-off  reconcile or as part of 
the next regular cycle.

usual disclaimer about not an accountant and check local laws, but really, 
it's ten quid.
