FF.005.2 Perform Bank Statement Reconciliation (Project Archive)

User Acceptance Test Overview

The Bank will send you Bank Statement file daily for previous day transactions. Once you received the file from bank, you will Import the Bank statement file (FF.005.2.1 - Load Bank Statements). After loading the bank statement transaction, run the FF.005.2.2 - Run Automatic Reconciliation and FF.005.2.6 - Process Statement Accounting. You review the reconciliation exceptions and do FF.005.2.4 Perform Semi Manual Reconciliation. If still no bank transactions are reconciled, then do FF.005.2.5 Enter External Transactions online and FF.005.2.4 Perform Semi Manual Reconciliation. If you still have some transactions not reconciled then you can FF.005.2.7 Force Reconcile Exception..

Once you reconciled the transactions, you can FF.005.2.8 Review Bank Statement. All reconciled details goes to Account Payable module as well as treasury accounting to create proper GL Accounting.

We would not recommend doing FF.005.2.9 - Perform Manual Reconciliation. There is downfall of doing manual reconciliation. For manual reconciliation, there is no bank statement needed. In ctcLink, we only do Auto Reconciliation and Semi Manual Reconciliation.

The Book to bank reconciliation (FF.005.2.10) is month end process not a daily process. There are certain Prerequisites items, which need to be completed before performing FF.005.2.10 - Perform Book to Bank Reconciliation. Check QRG for details.
