Xero Tip of the Month – Remove & Redo or Unreconcile a Bank Account Transaction

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Learn about the 2 options to unreconcile a bank account or credit card transaction: Remove & Redo, and Unreconcile. The option you choose depends on why you’re unreconciling the transaction. In most cases, and if in doubt, use Remove & Redo.

Remove & Redo = account transaction deleted + bank statement line unmatched.

Unreconcile = account transaction unmatched + bank statement line unmatched.
