Also, remember not to delete formulas in the "Balance" column, "Reconciliation Data" and "Summary" sections. If you manage multiple accounts, you can create copies of this spreadsheet. We recommend making it a habit and record transactions as they occur or at the very least weekly, to avoid any mistakes and save you hours spent in an effort to identify the missing transactions. Alternatively, if the checkbook is not reconciled, a different message appears, prompting you to CHECK BANK CLOSING BALANCE and check your transactions. To add more clarity, when balancing your checkbook, the register displays a message to notify you that THE CHECKBOOK IS BALANCED when everything is balanced. The overview also reflects the amount to reconcile, your current checkbook balance and the final balance difference, if any.
The summary displays the beginning balance, total of your deposits and withdrawals, and the end balance. Your transactions will reside in the "outstanding" column of the "Reconciliation Data" area for the time being until you are ready to reconcile.Īt the top of the worksheet you will find a summary overview of your checkbook. For that reason you may have to wait until transactions are reflected and only then reconcile each of your entries by entering "r" or "R" in the corresponding cells. If you are issuing a check or receiving a deposit by check, your transaction may not appear immediately on your bank account. When this step is completed, you are ready to start recording your transactions as they occur. If you have no opening balance, you may enter "0" or leave it blank. First, to ensure accuracy, you have to enter your Opening Balance if required, which essentially is the same as the "Balance Carried Forward". The main worksheet, labeled "Register", is where you will spend most of your time, but before you start recording your transactions, there are a couple of things you may need to do. The list already contains some predefined transaction types, which, if necessary, you can customize and add more rows for any new transaction type. You can add and define transaction types on the Settings worksheet of this template.
