Why do I have an adjustment required?
Description
Cause
  • There was an unresolved amount that you did not fix and instead let the reconciliation window post an adjusting entry for you
  • The bank opening balance could have been changed to be able to post the bank reconciliation
Resolution

IMPORTANT: Sage does not provide data analysis/investigation services for you.  Any research will need to be done by your company. 

  1. The 'Adjustment Required' line in the Account Reconciliation report means it is already adjusted (posted).  
  2. No further entry is required.
  3. This is only for reporting purposes.
  4. Whether the bank reconciliation should have posted the adjustment is another topic entirely. 
    • For ease of use, Sage 50 allows automatically posting an adjusting entry only when there is an unresolved amount while no discrepancy amount is in effect
    • However, it is the responsibility of the company (user) to that this should not happen since the bank reconciliation was not balanced until the automatic adjusting entry was entered
