Bank Statement Entry

Bank Statements

After you have imported bank statements, this form shows the details of the statements.

Matching lines to open items

The Matched column shows whether the bank statement line matches an open item:

• Matched: The statement line has been matched with an invoice.
• Partly matched: An invoice with the correct reference was found, but its amount does not match the amount of the bank statement line. You can select a different invoice, post the difference as a payment difference, or leave the difference as is.
• Not matched: No corresponding invoice was found for the bank statement line. While on a line in the Invoice/reference column, open the open items list to manually match the line with an open item, or, in the Account column, select a ledger account to which the line can be posted.
• Not applicable: The line will not be matched with open items. This status will be assigned, for example, if you have made the summarized payments yourself. In that case, you match the entry with the in-transit account.

In the bottom-right corner of the form, the match message is displayed, showing the match result. If there was no match, the reason is shown here.

Tasks

If a line relates to multiple invoices, you can split the line and select the corresponding invoice for each newly created line. Bank statement lines that have not been matched can be matched manually. If the amount of an entry differs from the amount of the open items, you can choose to post the payment difference to a ledger account. Once all bank statement lines have been dealt with, you can process the bank statement. All entries will then be processed.
