In my new Q09D, the "current balance" for my checking account, both in the overview and in the account bar is wrong. No relationship to any number anywhere! The "ending balance" is OK, but that includes open checks, etc. Is there a way to correct this?
Jim - In your checkbook register, when you're looking at the view sorted by "Date / Order Entered", your value ('current balance') above the horizontal line (delineating the current date from any future transactions) is NOT the value that is in the balance column?? You sure???
Yes, that's the number shown as current balance. But sorting that way showed a couple of large transactions that had been reconciled, and had dates in the distant future (wrong year.) I still think it should be the balance based on reconcile status, not date, though. Problem solved. Thank you.

If you wish to see the balance by reconcile status, sort on the "CLR" column.

Yep - that shows the unreconciles followed by the ones that are still 'open'. To easily do this, in case Jim (or anyone else) doesn't know, is to simply click on the 'CLR' column header. Faster than bring down the VIEW then SORT BY CLEARED STATUS.
Of course I know that - it's the root of the problem. Mine is always sorted that way. BUT - the "current balance" as it shows in the account list is based on date, not reconcile status, and thus is not necessarily the real balance on hand. What I see in the register is correct. Enough said.
