Banking | Account Transactions - Show # of unreconciled transactions
Bank : I work in practice an an issue I see day in and day out is unreconciled Account Transactions. Unlike the 'Reconcile' tab, there is no number in brackets to indicate how many unreconciled Account Transactions there are to prompt people to look at it.
Most of my clients didn't know about the Reconciliation Report, all they concentrate on is getting the number on the 'Reconcile' tab as low as possible.
I would really like to see the number of unreconciled Account Transactions to appear on this tab.

I would go further and suggest that instead of a big green "Well Done! You've Reconciled Everything" when all bank feed statement lines are matched, that confirmation should display a list of any/all unreconciled transactions.
The real-world workflow/intention does have people completing the feed reconciliation and then navigating off to somewhere completely different to run a reconciliation report. For the vast majority, allocating the bank feed and getting the big green confirmation is the end of the process.
Being aware of un-presented items being an important part of that process, they should be represented somewhere obvious in that workflow. Having to run a separate report is NOT an appropriate solution.
