Why reconcilation discrepency when there is no discrepency?

I am getting a reconciliation discrepancy of $36 when after triple checking previous balance, new balance, and all purchases and payments I can find no discrepancy.

    Perhaps, is there a future dated transaction (occurring after your Reconciliation As-of date) that has an "R" in the CLR column?

  • There are no future transactions entered yet.

    A difference that's evenly divisible by $9 (such as $36) can also be caused by a transposition error.  Have you double checked for those types of errors, which are easy to overlook.

  • Yes, I have checked 4 times now, and also my Quicken monthly beginning and ending amounts, purchase totals, payments and credits totals all match the paper document from my bank. It seems odd that the Reconciliation Ending Balance and Quicken balance are the same even through a difference is indicated. This is the first time in 20 years I have seen something like this in any of my accounts.

    Yes, sorry, contacting Quicken Support is probably best; if some basic troubleshooting doesn't reveal the "aha!" culprit, it's hard to diagnose reconciliation problems without seeing the screen.
