None of the reconciliation status changes allow leaving the bank balance unchanged. You would need to Clear the 5 checks, which would change the balance. And then create and post an entry in BankRec to restore the balance back to what it was. Assuming those 5 checks were payments, you would do a receipt with no customer number. It doesn't matter about the distribution account, just the amount.

Ensure that this 'reversing' BankRec batch entry does not get posted in Ledger or anywhere else.
