Bank Reconciliation

Among the most important statistics available to your agency are your bank account balances. To make sure the numbers you rely on are correct, you likely reconcile the bank statement to your records each month. The Bank Reconciliation feature provides an automated means of tracking bank activity and allowing you to flag cleared transactions as reported by your bank. [* You also have the ability to enter interest and bank charge adjustments as part of the reconciliation process.]
