    hi

    Is the amount on your bank statement for that time? If so and the bank has been reconciled, I suggest 

     

    You do a find transaction for the amount in the undeposited funds account.

    Perhaps someone did another tranasation instead of depositing that amount to the bank

     

    Do a find transaction from the banking screen ( bottom ribbon)

    On the accounts tab go into advanced

    change to all accounts

    change date range as appropriate

    put in the amount you are looking for

    see what comes up

     

    If there is two transactions ( the undeposited funds and a doubled up transaction) you need to address it with respect to the transaction , which is correct , what needs to be done and the time frame. Changes can affect your BAS reporting 

     

     

    For instance if the undeposited funds transaction is for a customer payment and the receive money is coded to an income account in error I would deposit the payment as at today and do a spend money ( the exact reverse of the receive money payment)as at todays date - this effectively cancels each other out in the bank rec but corrects the transactions in this periods BAS 

     

    hope that helps
