I finished my quarterly reconciliations about an hour ago, so it's all very fresh :-) If you alter or delete any transaction that's been previously reconciled, the reconciliation will need to be done again (pretty reasonable really). As a matter of good practice, I always check the old reconciliation before starting a new period. If you delete or alter any transaction from AFTER the period that has been reconciled, there is no effect at all. I believe an accountant would tell you that deleting/changing transactions after reconciliation is a BAD_IDEA (tm). I do it all the time, but then I'm not an accountant so it's OK. You can use audit control to lock transactions (somebody correct me if I'm wrong?), but that's for people who do the job properly. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
