Managing reconciliation on the Bank Acc. Reconciliation page

Once bank account statements are imported, the bank's file format is converted to list all the information needed to reconcile your bank account. Continia Banking ensures accurate matching by aligning the statement lines with your bank account's ledger entries. Additionally, it prepares accounts receivable for matching and generates proposals for potential matches.

Before you start using Continia Banking for bank account reconciliation, we recommend closing the open bank account ledger entries. Select a bank account and suggest a specific date to close entries, to ensure that Continia Banking focuses on relevant bank transactions from that point onward. To close all open bank entries, see To fill in bank reconciliation lines with the Suggest lines action on Microsoft Learn.

To initiate a bank account reconciliation:

1. Search () for and select Bank Account Reconciliations.
2. Click New.
3. In the Bank Account No. field, select a bank account.
4. On the action bar, click Home > Import and Match Bank Statement.
5. To import the statement and initiate the reconciliation process, a dialog box appears, either prompting you to select a file or providing information related to communication with the bank. The content of the dialog depends on whether the bank account uses direct communication or not.
6. On the action bar, click Matching > Match Automatically.
7. On the left side is an overview of statement lines received from the bank. The next step is to match the lines on the left side with the lines on the right side. The lines are matched based on the setup of Continia Banking Import. You can use Status on the account statement lines to get started. For an overview of the statuses, their meaning, and the appropriate action to take, see The reconciliation statuses in the Bank Account Reconciliation.
