[GNC] How to force y in reconcile field

[Xe Roy]

I tried reconcile again per derek suggestion.
I set the date to the same date as before.
I clicked the two transactions that need to be reconciled.
I clicked RECONCILE SELECTION but the FINISH button is grayed preventing this process to complete.

Derek, I like your solution best.  I've made the mistake of reconciling to the balance in my account without waiting for the statement.  It really took some head scratching to figure how to correct it later when I did receive the statement.  But can you change either the date or the ending balance?  In my case, I had an ending balance that was different on the official statement.  Hope that's not too convoluted to be understood.

Just re-run the reconcile with the same ending date and balance as the
previous time, so you can re-reconcile those transactions.
