Hello there, @JScarb, 

I appreciate you for recreating the deleted expense. Doing this won't automatically reconcile your account. With this, you'll have to perform the special reconciliation process again, so it fixes the beginning balance difference. This also ensures your account in QuickBooks matches your bank statement. For detailed instructions, go through this article: Reconcile Bank and Credit Card Account. 

You can always run the four reports below to trace your account activities every time you reconcile it. The reports help you fix any reconciliation differences in the future. 

• Reconciliation Discrepancy
• Previous Reconciliation
• Bank Account QuickReport
• Audit Trail

For more information, check out this website: Find Reconciliation Discrepancies (Mac). 

I'm always here to help if you have other concerns. Happy Holidays, @JScarb.
