# Update a reconciliation draft

PATCH `/partners/reconciliations/{uuid}`

Corrects the ending date and/or ending balance of a draft reconciliation.

Pass only what changes. The opening balance cannot be sent — the body is strict, so unknown fields return 400. The server re-derives the opening balance for this draft and every later draft on the account.

HMAC signature + Bearer access token
