Bank transactions management
Use this function to view all imported bank statements and their status. By default only nonvalidated statements display.
The tasks you can perform for each statement vary depending on the flow type setting: Standard or Reconciliation only.
Standard flow type:
- Start the automatic matching for all unmatched statements.
- Undo the matching or delete an imported statement if necessary.
- Open a statement to review the transactions and to start the matching for this single statement. You can also do manual matches.
Reconciliation only flow type:
- Access transactions in the Bank statement reconciliation function (RAPBAN) for matching and generating payments.
- Display imported bank transactions.
These statements are imported using the Bank transactions import function (BSIIMPORT) or you can click Start import from the Action panel to access the this function.
After importing bank transactions, you need to match the transactions to open items or payments and validate to generate the payment. For matches to payments, a new payment is not generated when you validate the statement.
Matching transactions
Applies to Standard flow type only.
Click Start matching from the Actions panel. This runs the automatic matching process for all unmatched statements and searches for open items and posted payments based on search criteria in Bank import settings (BSIIMPPAR).
One bank statement transaction can only be matched to either an open item(s) or a payment(s). A transaction cannot be matched to both an open item and a payment.
Matching priority depends on the sign of the payment transaction:
- Revenue: Open items are matched first.
- Expense: Payments are matched first.
Note: You can start the matching for a single statement from the Process bank transactions option on the Actions icon menu on each line.
Processing transactions
Applies to Standard flow type only.
For each statement (line), the next step is to select Process the bank transactions from the Actions icon menu.
Bank statement reconciliation
Applies to Reconciliation only flow type only.
For each statement (line), click Bank statement reconciliation from the Actions icon menu at the beginning of a line to access that function.

Possible status of a statement:
Not matched: initial status after import (Standard flow type)Matched: matching for some or all transactions performed (Standard flow type)
Validated: payments generated, read-only (Standard flow type)
Reconcile: statements imported with the Reconciliation only flow type to be processed through the Bank statements reconciliation function (RAPBAN)
