Many Thanks. I did all of the above and 2  Things:

1. The Account still shows a much higher beginning balance when I reconcile this. I suspect it is because I'm using an opening balance of $5435 (which was the opening balance on Jan-1) but QB pulled in the transactions from previous years.

2. Tha transactions are not showing in the Reconcile Page  - but shows in the balance sheet when I click on the account.
