Bank reconciliation

For: Accountants

Bank statements are imported, matched to the receipts and payments in the books, and what the bank shows but the books do not (charges, interest, unknown receipts) is booked from the statement itself.

Bank reconciliation 1:10

Import the statement, match each line, see what's still open.

Transcript

Hi, I'm Zuzu. Let's reconcile a client's bank account for the quarter.

In Bank reconciliation, Import statement takes the bank's Excel or CSV file. Choose the company and bank account, upload, and map the columns once.

Each statement line becomes a bank line, marked reconciled, or unreconciled.

In Reconcile, choose the company, bank account, dates and the closing balance from the statement. Then Get Unreconciled Entries.

The difference shows what's still open. Match each line to its receipt or payment, or create a voucher for bank charges and interest. Auto Reconcile matches the easy ones in one go.

The bank reconciliation statement agrees the books with the bank, as on a date.

That's it! Need a hand? Visit zenoziva.com
