When I type in the bank statement date to begin the reconciliation, it only shows transactions up to the bank statement date. It should show all transactions up to the current date because sometimes entries have been dated after the statement date even though they appear on the bank statement.
For example, some PAP entries were made after the board had reviewed the financial statements, so I could not post the entries to that month because I'd be changing f/s that were already approved (unfortunately an accrual had not been made).
I previously used QuickBooks and it would show all entries up to the current date. It would also allow the user to reconcile an entry that was dated after the statement date. It was very flexible and worked well.
This would be a huge improvement for us since our bank statements are not reconciled until after our financial reporting is finished. It is a problem to have reports submitted and then change the numbers after, especially the cash number.
