Print the Reconciliation Report

HawkSoft recommends that you print the completed QuickBooks Reconciliation Report if you are using QuickBooks Desktop. QuickBooks desktop displays only the most recent reconciliation report. Create a folder to store your saved reconciliation reports. Saving them as a PDF allows you to view reports from past months. QuickBooks Online provides a history of reconciliation reports.
