PSA L&P - Bank Reconciliation: How to update the ledger when the bank cleared a check for the wrong amount

How to update the ledger when the bank cleared a check for the wrong amount

There are two possible ways to fix this problem:

  • The easiest solution is to make a journal entry. This option also ensures an accurate record of what actually happened.
  • If you have permission to delete checks, delete the original check and enter a corrected check. This option is not recommended since it eliminates the electronic trail of what actually happened.
