Hello there, JW42.

 

Let me add some troubleshooting steps to help you fix data damage within your company file.

 

QuickBooks Desktop has a built-in Rebuild Data Tool that automatically fixes company file data issues. Let me guide you on how.

 

  1. Head to the File menu, then Utilities.
  2. Select Rebuild Data and click OK on the QuickBooks Information window.
  3. Follow the onscreen steps to save a backup of your data and let the tool repair your file, which usually takes some time.
  4. Once done, click OK.
  5. Go back to the File menu, then choose Verify Data under Utilities.
  6. Allow the tool to check data issues within your file.

 

You can keep using the file if QuickBooks doesn't find any problems or rebuild your data again if there are any.

 

On the other hand, you can also repair your company file using QuickBooks File Doctor. You can refer to this article for more information: Fix data damage on your QuickBooks Desktop company file.

 

Moreover, you might want to scan this material to ensure your accounts match your real-life bank and credit card statements: Reconcile an account in QuickBooks Desktop.
