What you need
Reconciliation uses bank accounts, statements, statement lines, and accounting activity. If there are no imported or recorded statement lines, there is nothing meaningful to match. That is why Lynka’s Bank Reconciliation Readiness report can be unavailable instead of showing a made-up percentage when the workspace has no reconciliation data.Reconcile a line
1
Open Bank Reconciliation
Go to Accounting > Bank Reconciliation. Access is protected by the bank reconciliation permission.
2
Choose the bank account or statement context
Work from the statement activity that needs to be matched.
3
Review candidate accounting entries
Compare amount, date, reference, and counterparty context with the ledger or payment record.
4
Match the correct records
Confirm the match only when the bank line and accounting entry represent the same movement.
5
Leave genuine exceptions visible
If no valid accounting record exists, keep the statement line unmatched or use the supported exception workflow rather than forcing an unrelated match.
What reconciliation does not mean
A matched statement line does not create revenue. It confirms that a cash movement recorded in Accounting also appears at the bank. A bank statement should not be used to overwrite Accounts Receivable, invoice status, supplier bills, or other source records without resolving those workflows.Common unmatched cases
- payment is still pending or uncleared
- bank date differs from accounting date
- bank fees or charges need their own accounting entry
- one bank line represents several accounting transactions
- a transaction was recorded in the wrong bank account
- the source payment or cash entry is missing
