How do Transactions Affect the Bank Reconciliation

When an Accounts Payables Check is written:

* The "Adjusted Bank Balance" is DECREASED
* The "Computer Balance" is DECREASED
* The "Amount to Reconcile" remains the SAME

When an Accounts Receivable is received:

* The "Adjusted Bank Balance" is INCREASED
* The "Computer Balance" is INCREASED
* The "Amount to Reconcile" remains the SAME

*** If the AR is a check, it will affect the Bank Reconciliation balances on the date it is received. It will not have a box to be checked. It will be included in the Bank Deposit.

When a Bank Deposit is created:

* The "Adjusted Bank Balance" is INCREASED
* The "Computer Balance" is INCREASED
* The "Amount to Reconcile" remains the SAME

When the Bank Deposit is Checked Off on the Bank Reconciliation:

* The "Adjusted Bank Balance" is DECREASED
* The "Computer Balance" remains the SAME
* The "Amount to Reconcile" is DECREASED

When you write a Manual Check:
