Bank Reconciliation and Voided Checks

Recently, I was addressing a discussion in the forums, where a user was seeing voided checks in the Bank Reconciliation window. The user also mentioned that he never used to see voided checks appearing in the Bank Reconciliation window, but it appeared and when he was selecting the check, it gave him an error message as shown below.

Lets assume a scenario where a check was posted on 04/12/2017. The check was later voided as of 05/12/2017.

When running bank reconciliations in Dynamics GP, if you specify the cut off date as 04/30/2017, the check (even though voided) will still show up on the bank reconciliation window, since the status of the check as of 04/30/2017 is still active as it was only voided as of 05/12/2017.

So once we enter a cut off date as 05/12/2017, the voided check does not show up on the Bank Reconciliation window.

Note that if you do not specify a cut off date, the system will show all un-reconciled transactions (including voids) in the scrolling window for the reconciliation.

So ensure that you enter a valid cut off date during the reconciliation process.

Hope this helps the community…

Until next post!
