Bank Reconciliation - Cashbook

These procedures are all designed to help you reconcile your bank accounts against the bank or other account statements. The steps you would take to reconcile a statement are:

By now you should have accounted for any differences between the bank’s statement and your account. You should print the Unpresented and Commented Items reports to document any differences found

The bank reconciliation procedures are all run from the following menu:
