Reconcile a Bank Statement That Does Not Contain Imported Transactions

When you receive a statement from your bank, use the Bank Statement Reconciliation form to reconcile the statement.

To reconcile a bank statement, complete the following steps:

  1. From the Vision Navigation menu, click Accounting > Bank Reconciliation.
  2. In the Bank field on the Bank Statement Selection dialog box, click the drop-down arrow and select the bank.
  3. Complete one of the following actions:
    Option Description
    To start the reconciliation process for the statement In Statement Status, select New.

    In New Statement Date, click and select the statement date.

    To continue a reconciliation process begun previously, for which the statement date has already been entered and saved In Statement Status, select In Progress.

    For In Progress/Closed Statement Date, select the statement date.

  4. Click Select.
  5. To clear receipts deposited to your account, click the Receipts tab, select one or more receipts, and click Clear.
  6. To clear payments that have cleared the bank, click the Payments tab, select one or more payments, and click Clear.
  7. If the statement contains miscellaneous bank transactions that are not included on the General Tab, click the Miscellaneous tab and enter those transactions. If a miscellaneous bank transaction should be reflected in the general ledger, you also need to enter a corresponding transaction for it in the Transaction Center. Bank transactions entered on the Miscellaneous tab of Bank Statement Reconciliation only affect the reconciliation.
  8. If you want to mark the statement as closed so the statement date no longer displays on the list of in-progress statement dates, click the Main tab and select the Closed check box.
  9. To save the final reconciliation, click Save. You can also save periodically as you work on the reconciliation.
