Reconcile an account

Start

1. Choose Reconcile in the menu, then the account. (Or open the account and choose Reconcile this account.) Each account shows when it was last reconciled.
2. Enter the Statement closing date, the Beginning balance and the Ending balance from your statement. For a credit card these are the amounts owed. The beginning balance is filled in from your last reconciliation.
3. Choose Start reconciling. You can attach the statement once you start.

Tick off each line

Tick each transaction that appears on the statement. Tick all shown and Untick all shown help with long lists, and + Add a transaction adds one that is on the statement but missing from your books. The bottom of the page shows the cleared balance and the difference from the statement.

Save for later keeps your ticks to finish another time.

Finish

Finalize turns on once the ticked lines and your books both agree with the statement ("ready to finalize"). There is no way to finish a reconciliation that does not agree.

After you finish, transactions can still be changed. If something in that period changes, the reconciliation says the books changed since you reconciled.

Reopen, void or export

• Reopen picks a reconciliation back up with your ticks kept.
• Void undoes it and releases its lines; a voided one can then be deleted.
• Export saves it as a PDF.

Attach the statement

+ Attach the statement takes a PDF or a photo, up to 15 MB. It is optional, and you can add it later from the reconciliation's history.

On your phone

Reconciling is done on a computer; there is a lot to tick through. On your phone, ask Cash to check a statement instead.
