Bank Reconciliation View/Export

The Bank Reconciliation option provides you, in exportable format, the results of the beginning balance for each bank, cash received and paid out, and the ending balance. Journal entries are also shown in both summary and detail and you have the option of including outstanding checks in the detail.

After downloading information to Excel, you can then make additional notations on the spreadsheet pertaining to deposits in transit and other reconciling items to balance back to the bank statement.

Note: Any period may be selected, but for the first month that this option is used, you must call Client Services who will enter the beginning balance for each bank. From that point forward, the system will maintain each bank’s balance forward when you run the report for a month as a final Live run.

  2. As always, if you process in the background and your report is under 2MB in size, you will receive your report as an attachment in an email after processing is completed. If your report is over 2MB in size, your email will contain a link that will open a download window where you can save the file to a spreadsheet format.
