[GNC] Reconciliation mystery - unreconciled transactions in a period that was reconciled.

[davidcousens49 at gmail.com]

Rogier,

It would appear on the surface that somehow you did not reconcile the two
transactions which remained marked as "n" which means not cleared("c) or not
reconciled("y").  How ? Unfortunately without knowing exactly what you did
during the reconciliation process it will be hard for anyone to tell. Obvious
things are to check the dates on the two transactions to make sure they are in
the reconciliation period and check that any transactions after the end of the
reconciliation date are not marked with "y". A common error is entering the
wrong year when entering the transaction.  Any unreconciled transactions from
earlier periods should show up in the reconcilation window panes.

That the balances add up with the two un reconciled transactions suggest opening
the reconciliation process again and seeing if the two unmarked transactions
appear in it.
