Field Description
Bank This field displays the bank and corresponding bank code.
Fiscal Period This field displays the fiscal period in which the bank statement was created.
Statement Date This field displays the statement date for the corresponding bank and bank code.

Opening Balance This field displays the closing balance from the previous statement as the opening balance.
Closing Balance Enter the closing balance from the selected statement.
Closed When the reconciliation is completed, select this check box to mark the reconciliation as closed.

Closing a reconciliation removes the statement date from the list of "in progress" statements on the Bank Statement Selection dialog box, to make it easier to select statements in the future. It also disables options on the other tabs on the Bank Statement Reconciliation form. However, you can clear this check box at any time to reopen the reconciliation.
