Unresolved amount

SOLVED

The deposit slip has an incorrect amount and the bank didn't catch it on time.  This discrepancy is the unresolved amount therefore I cannot post the bank rec unless I do an entry for such.  Is there a way to clear just the incorrect amount so the discrepancy will show as deposit in transit?  I am using Sage 50.  Thank you

    So the deposit was posted correctly to each customer but entered onto deposit slip incorrectly. And the bank will correct it but not in time for the month you are doing bank rec in.

    You can post a general journal entry to put difference into a suspense account (or bank interest charge expense acct) with comment of something like To Adjust for Jun30/14 Deposit adding error. Then when the bank corrects it you can do same journal entry but in reverse for date the bank correction is made on.

    If the bank is not going to correct it then I would just expense it to bank charges.

    That's what I did before posting the concern.  Thank you.
