It is useful so I can see if items are cleared or not cleared when looking at the balance of the account and know of the outstanding items especially right after reconciling the bank. It would also be relevant to see a check or deposit from anywhere if it would show whether it was still outstanding or cleared in a previous reconciliation from whatever screen I pulled the transaction up from either GL detail or reports, or drilling down from a report. I have never used an accounting program where this was not super easy to see the results of the tranaction pertaining to cleared or outstanding. I also agree that the reconciliation report is lacking that is does not print the beginning balance and the cleared deposits and ACH credits to account, and the cleared checks and ACH debits to the account and then list outstanding items as of the date reconciled. Then I would be able to look and print my last reconciliation but that is not an option with sage, since it does not list this on the reconciliation report.
