John_mike The reconciliation process has been working fine for years on all four basic account types. Either your accounts are not set up correctly or you are not using them correctly. Many users, myself included, only reconcile bank accounts and credit card accounts. There have been some reports here that in releases 3.0 thru 3.4 the new reconciliation report has some issues, but that is separate from the basic process. Perhaps you can include images of one of your ficticious credit card accounts to show us what you consider wrong.
