Once a statement has been imported (or created manually), the bank statement entries can be automatically checked for matches against your system entries. The auto-match can be run as part of the import statement routine or later from the Statement window.
This process attempts to match all debit statement lines to unpresented cheques/payments on the system by means of cheque number/reference, amount and transaction date. If the reference and amount match, and the statement line date is not prior to the system transaction date, then a match is made and the payment is presented. In terms of credits, a match is made if the reference number and amount match a single receipt on the system. If there is any ambiguity, transactions are left unmatched.
To auto-match statement entries:
Run the auto-match.
If importing a statement, click Yes when you are asked if you want to run an automatic statement line match.
If modifying a statement, click Auto-Match in the Statement window.
Once the auto-match has completed, a message showing the number of matches is displayed.
Click OK. The statement entries are marked with a status of matched or unmatched.
