[GNC] Does it matter the other transactions are entered?

To each their own, but that seems like lots of work.

You can cancel a reconciliation once started, so if you discover 
transactions are missing, and can't find the data, just start over later 
when you do.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding the issue?
