i had to manually key in my sales/purchase transactions via the bank transactions>receive/spend money tab. Now, there’s a transaction date, and a clearance date (which is the date it appeared in the bank statement). However, I’ve noticed that sometimes, the transaction date is sometimes used as the ‘clearance date’ when i check the bank balance via bank accounts> actual balance tab, which leads to monthly variance in reconciliation. Is this a bug, or am I missing something here?
Can you illustrate what you mean with screen shots?
In general, the date appearing in the Date column will vary, depending on whether you have clicked Statement balance or Actual balance. Dates for the first will be clearance dates. Dates for the second will be transaction entry dates when the transaction is pending, but will change to clearance date once cleared.
But notice, there is no column labeled as ‘clearance date’ as you wrote.
please make sure you have entered a clearance date in the transaction.
if you set the transaction as cleared and leave the cleared date field blank to enter it later, the transaction date will be taken into consideration.
