I am having problems with reconciling one of my client's bank accounts. The account has not been reconciled using First Edge for a number of years. I went to complete the reconciliation and realized that because we had closed the previous fiscal years and created a new data file the historical transactions that I needed to complete the reconciliations weren't there. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can get around this problem so that I can reconcile the account in First Edge?

Thanks,

The closing/opening account balances presumably include these transactions in their totals so you don't want to change net account totals but want to have something to check off.

For each missing item:
Spend Money: Date to the first day of your new books (fiscal year).
Code from the checking account missing the checks needing to be reconciled
enter amount and for the "expense" account code the same checking account as above. Checking account balance will not change but you will now have transactions to check off in the reconcile process.
I don't remember any of the other details but you can find more about this in the MYOB help re: setting up a new company file
