Changes and New Features in Bank Services
What's New in Version 5.6 5
Now, you need to fill in only the Statement Date and the Reconciliation
Date. We have removed the Reconciliation Posting Date field from the
Summary tab. (We have also removed this field from the Reconcile
OFX statements form.)
Bank statement balances and adjustments are now labeled as such, so
they are immediately identifiable.
You can now post any unposted bank entries simply by clicking the Go
button beside the amount of unposted bank entries.
An efficient, new
Reconciliation tab
• A new Reconciliation tab consolidates reconciliation information and
provides new tools to help you reconcile efficiently.
In earlier versions, transactions were assigned to four different tabs
that you used to reconcile different types of transactions. You couldn’t
view or reconcile all transactions in one place.
Now, a convenient new Reconciliation tab replaces these four tabs,
letting you view and reconcile all types of transactions.
Filter and sort
displayed
transactions
You can also filter the transactions by reconciliation status and
transaction type — and sort the result by document date or by
transaction number. You don’t need to scroll through an unwieldy list
to find the transactions you want to clear!
Clear transactions
with a mouse click
To clear the full amount of a transaction, you now simply double-click
the transaction on the reconciliation grid to mark the transaction
Cleared.
To clear the transaction with a different amount, you select a
reconciliation status to clear the transaction with an error or with a
write-off, and then you enter the amount to clear.
To view individual receipts that make up a deposit, you select the
deposit, and then click the Details button.
Note: The Details button is available only for deposits that consist
of multiple receipts. (These can include deposits entered in Bank
Services using version 5.5, which permitted multiple details for
each deposit. In version 5.6, although you can enter multiple
details for each deposit in Bank Entry, posting the deposit creates
one lump sum for the Reconcile Statements form.)
When reconciling transactions in version 5.6, note that:
− The reconciliation status Cleared With Credit Card Charges is no
longer available for withdrawals.
