Deleting a Reconciliation

Important:

This topic pertains to the original reconciliation feature, which is no longer supported as of NetSuite 2021.1. If you want to delete a reconciled statement on the redesigned Reconcile Account Statement page, see Deleting Reconciled Statements.

For more information on the Reconcile Account Statement page, see Bank Data Matching and Reconciliation.

After completing a bank or credit card statement reconciliation, you can delete the reconciliation. For example, if you discover that a statement contains an error such as an incorrect date, you can delete the reconciliation and then enter a new one.

To delete a statement reconciliation:

  1. Depending on the type of statement you need to delete, do one of the following:

    • For bank statements, go to Transactions > Bank > Reconcile Bank Statement.

    • For credit card statements, go to Transactions > Bank > Reconcile Credit Card Statement.

  2. Enter the date of the reconciled statement.

    This is the date from the Statement Date field.

  3. From the Actions menu, click Delete.

    You are prompted to confirm deletion of the reconciliation.

  4. Click OK to confirm the deletion.

    Note:

    Previously cleared transactions remain Cleared on the bank or credit card account register even if the reconciliation is deleted.

To verify that a reconciliation was deleted, go to Reports > Banking/Budgeting > Reconciliation. Confirm that the statement date is no longer available in the report.

Warning:

Although you can edit a previously saved reconciliation statement, you should delete the statement and create a new one. Editing a previously saved reconciliation statement can cause future reconciliation imbalances.
