QuickBooks reconciliation is a feature that ensures that your account is an accurate reflection of business transactions that have been made. In case, your account shows a different balance in the next reconciliation and you have a doubt, it is the reconciliation discrepancy that you need to deal with.

The causes of the discrepancy include:

  • Some kind of modification in the previously reconciled data or transaction
  • Deletion of previously reconciled transaction

Whatever changes are done to the previously reconciled data, it directly affects the current reconciliation process, thereby leading to discrepancies. To have a more clear-cut idea of the error, you can consult Fastfix247 experts and they will help you understand the scenario better.
