Match bank transactions

There are two tabs under Cash and bank. One where you see all bank transaction for a specific period, and one where you see which bank transactions that need to be checked or matched manually. If the button on a transaction row is green, the program has found a likely accounting transaction match, e.g. an invoice, and you can choose to match it by clicking the button. If the button is orange, you need to match the bank transaction against the accounting transaction manually.

In order for an invoice to be registered as paid it must be matched against a payment or a credit note. The bank transactions that the program finds the corresponding sales and purchase invoices for are automatically posted to the ledger and shown under Bank transactions this period.

The program uses the invoice number, paid amount and due date to match the invoices against payments. If both the invoice number and the amount correspond to the invoice details, the match is posted to the ledger automatically. If the result is not 100% certain, you will receive a suggested match, which you then can confirm or edit.

The matching is carried out no matter if you have a bank integration with automatic retrieval of the bank statement, import a file with bank transactions from your internet bank or if you register your bank transactions manually.

In most scenarios, the program is able to match incoming and outgoing payments of invoices, but if you for example have made a purchase with receipt or received money from Belastingdienst, you must create a new accounting transaction to match against the transaction on the bank statement.

You will find examples and tips on how to match and post frequently occurring transactions in the topics Match incoming payments manually and Match outgoing payments manually.
