It was mentioned that this issue arose after an update - in fact, that it was 
the first reconciliation since that update.

As others have also mentioned, they are not seeing the same issue that you are, 
at least with the given details.  While your last message does list the 
transaction dates in detail, it does not mention other factors such as whether 
this, for you, is a new issue in a recent update or whether reconciling in 
GnuCash is a process that you may be trying for the first time, or whether you 
have verified the other steps, including checking the starting and ending 
balances.

Now that release 3.6 is out, you (and others) can also check whether that 
release behaves the same way.  Historically, others have not seen your issue, 
but you are correct that it should not be requiring that transactions be dated 
on the cleared date, unless you are specifically trying to match dates to the 
dates shown on your bank statement.  For one account in my data, I actually do 
try to do that.

If you read my message, you will see that this is just what I did.  

As mentioned in my update, if a cheque is written on 23 May, for instance, but 
not presented until 2nd June, and the reconciliation date is 31st May, then 
with the new version of Gnucash the date of the cheque must be changed to 
beyond the reconciliation period.

Another way looking at this issue is while reconciling to be sure that all 
transactions on the bank statement are checked and all transactions in the 
statement period that have not cleared yet are not checked.   Then the 
reconciliation can be completed.  There is no requirement for outstanding 
transactions to be checked. 


If, as you suggested,  the reconciliation ending balance cannot be changed to 
match the bank statement balance to complete the reconciliation thus requiring 
all transactions to be checked,  that would be a serious issue requiring a big 
report.

Please excuse my spell checker re-writes . I cannot be sure that it says what I 
mean.

Yes, that's the first thing I checked.  You'll see that my initial post 
confirmed this.

This is the first reconciliation since upgrading to a newer version.

I've done some more investigation, and found that it is because one of the 
transactions had been entered under an incorrect date.  This new version will 
not allow reconciliation until all transactions within the date span are marked 
off, meaning that if a cheque is entered, the date will have to be changed from 
the date it was written to the date it was presented.

Make sure your ending balance, as entered when you start the reconcile
process, matches your statement ending balance. And then make sure only
the items on the statement are checked off in the reconcile window.
