Hi, in v13, you can create a journal entry to set bank account balances. In other words, you can create credit/debit entries directly against the bank nominals. This means, no reconciliation is required. In v14 it is different, but I won't go into that. If you wish to have a reconcilation process against bank statements, then create the journal entries to go to receivable/payable suspense accounts (make sure such accounts are set as reconcilable) , then after these are posted, when you process a bank statement, you will be able to find these journal entries. I am assuming you are talking about opening balances, so the bank statement line would need to be an opening balance to make any sense.
