Use this interactive demo to learn how to edit and update details on reconciled transactions in Xero.

Quick summary

In Xero, you can change the details of reconciled items by navigating to the relevant bank account, opening the reconciled transaction, and using the Bill Options > Edit workflow to update and save your changes. This process lets bookkeepers and accountants correct reconciled transaction data without losing the reconciliation link.


Steps

  1. On Xero's main dashboard, select a bank account.
  2. Find and open the reconciled transaction that you want to edit.
  3. Tap the statement line to proceed.
  4. Click Bill Options in the top-right corner.
  5. Choose Edit from the dropdown choices.
  6. Tap the editable fields one by one and make your desired changes.
  7. Review your input and click Save to apply the changes.
  8. The details of the selected reconciled items will be updated based on your input.

📌 Why this matters

Editing reconciled transactions in Xero is a critical capability for bookkeepers and accountants who need to correct data entry errors without disrupting their bank reconciliation records. Xero's built-in edit workflow allows users to update bill details on already-reconciled items directly from the bank account view, reducing the need for manual workarounds. This feature helps businesses maintain accurate financial records and ensures that reconciled data stays aligned with source documents. For teams managing high volumes of transactions, the ability to quickly locate, edit, and save reconciled item details in Xero saves significant time and reduces compliance risk.
