[GNC] Reconciliation question

[Kalpesh Patel]

When you finish reconciling, the difference between the statement and the GNC should be zero which is not the case (as shown in the picture in red color) – “Funds In” side of transaction in the amount of CHF252.55 is not checked (payments that you made which would be part of your statement). Once you put a check mark in the R column of that payment transaction, it will bring your overall balance in line with your statements as difference will change to zero, and the Finish button will become live button that you can click on.

 

You need to reconcile all transactions from the bill – i.e., all debits, and all credits resulting from either as a payment or as a result of returning back an item – not just purchases (debits).

Thank you Patel.

This leads to the next question: why am I not able to click "Finish" when doing this? I do know that I have other credit card transactions which have not yet been reconciled (I'm registering transactions from the past, therefore I'm not yet fully up-to-date)...

It looks like this now:



 

What am I missing and/or doing wrong?

 

Thanks,

F.

You should use the closing date (which might be the billing date) for reconciliation. Your credit card statement should have date range for which the bill is applicable. Last day of that range is the closing date.

Hi there.

When I reconcile my credit card, I'm faced with two dates:
- the date when the bill was created (e.g. 13.02.2024);
- the date when the bill was paid from my checking account (e.g. 28.02.2024)

When I reconcile, what date should I enter? The billing date or the date of the effective payment from my checking account?

Thanks,
F.
