Reconciling and Unreconciling Checks

Reconcile a single check: Select Reconcile for the refund check. The current date appears in the Recon field to indicate that the check has been reconciled.
Unreconcile a single check: Select Unreconcile for a reconciled refund check that you want to unreconcile. The reconciled date disappears from the screen to indicate that the check is still unreconciled.
You cannot unreconcile a voided check.
Reconcile a batch of checks: Select Batch Reconcile to display the Batch Reconciliation pop-up window.
To reconcile a batch of canceled refund checks, enter the necessary information. You can:
• Reconcile canceled checks by check number by entering the first and last check numbers in the Starting check # and the Ending check # fields, or
• Reconcile canceled checks by batch by entering the first date and the final date of the checks in the Starting check date and Ending check date fields
Correcting Refund Check Errors
