Yeah that was probably me….I never saw a solution…..may have missed it, been dealing with health stuff….
Thanks for the reply….they do have different dates and amounts but seems like no matter how I attempt to handle them during the clearing process, something always ends up goofy….the matching step is where I am having issues.

That came up in another thread a couple of weeks ago. As far as I know, the only solution is to be very careful in the matching step of the import. You can help yourself when making the payments to be sure they have different dates or amounts, or even paying out of different checking accounts.

That is where I am running into issues when I import and "clear" (I have always called this "reconciling" but I guess there is a difference?) The bank just has a line item "bankname payment" , same for each card account. That is where I run into issues trying to manually "clear" and that throws my account balances in GC off.... -----Original Message----- From: Adrien Monteleone [mailto:adrien.montele...@lusfiber.net] Sent: Wednesday, February 23, 2022 2:15 PM To: gnucash-u...@lists.gnucash.org Subject: Re: [GNC] reconcile problem? Transactions won't reconcile themselves, but you can clear them either manually or via an import. If you opened a backup by mistake, that would result in something showing 'unreconciled' if the backup was before the reconciliation. The only way to get the 'y' to appear in the register is through a reconciliation. Which means you in fact checked it off a previous time. You can re-do a reconciliation by changing all of the affected transactions back to 'n' or 'c', and then trying again. Be sure to remove any adjusting transactions you made during the last reconciliation. You probably don't need them. (but can always re-create if you do) Then proceed with this months reconciliation. In the future, if you ever notice transactions appearing 'c' or 'n' when you know they should be 'y' means you've edited them in a manner that will change the flag. (either in that register or one connected to the transaction) If you don't get warnings about this, go to Actions > Reset Warnings... and adjust as needed. When you edit a transaction and the flag changes (or you discover it later) simply re-reconcile and clear the affected transaction(s). (and if you are editing amounts, double check you didn't make an adjusting entry, because again, you might no longer need it!)
