Your First Reconciliation

1

Preparing Your Files

Before starting your first reconciliation, you'll need to prepare two files:

  • Bank Statement: Export your statement from your bank's online portal as CSV or Excel (.xls/.xlsx)
  • Accounting Records: Export your transaction data from your accounting software (Xero, QuickBooks, etc.) as CSV or Excel (.xls/.xlsx)

Important:

Make sure both files cover the same date range for accurate reconciliation. Each file should have columns for date, amount, and description.

2

Uploading Your Files

Once your files are prepared, follow these steps to upload them:

  1. On the main page, locate the "Bank Statement" file upload section
  2. Click "Choose File" or drag and drop your bank statement file
  3. Repeat the process for your accounting records in the "Bookkeeping Software" section
  4. Click the "Reconcile Statements" button to proceed
Uploading Files to ReconcileIQ
3

Mapping Your Fields

After uploading your files, you'll be taken to the field mapping screen:

  1. The system will attempt to automatically identify date, amount, and description columns
  2. If the automatic mapping is incorrect, you can click and drag the blue column headers to adjust them
  3. Make sure to map both your bank and bookkeeping files correctly
  4. When satisfied with the mapping, click "These columns are correct" to proceed

Pro Tip:

Proper column mapping is crucial for accurate reconciliation. Take the time to verify that date, amount, and description fields are correctly identified in both files.

  • Transaction Details: Click on any transaction to see full details
  • Tab Navigation: Switch between different views of your reconciliation data

Tip:

Use the search function to quickly locate specific transactions when working with large datasets.

File Management

Supported File Formats

File Types

ReconcileIQ supports these file formats for both bank statements and accounting records:

  • CSV (Comma-Separated Values) - The most common format for exporting transaction data
  • Excel Files (XLSX, XLS) - Microsoft Excel spreadsheet formats

Note:

For best results, use CSV or Excel formats exported directly from your bank or accounting software.

Required Columns

For successful reconciliation, your files should include these key columns:

  • Date: Transaction date (various date formats supported)
  • Amount: Transaction amount (can be single column or split into debit/credit)
  • Description: Transaction description or reference information

ReconcileIQ will attempt to identify these columns automatically, and you can adjust the mapping if needed.

File Size and Row Limitations

Be aware of these limitations when uploading files:

  • Maximum File Size: 50MB per file
  • Row Limitations:
    • Free Plan: Up to 200 rows per file
    • Essential Plan: Up to 1,000 rows per file
    • Pro Plan: Up to 2,500 rows per file
    • Business Plan: Up to 20,000 rows per file
    • Enterprise Plan: Up to 150,000 rows per file

Important:

If your file exceeds your plan's row limit, you'll need to upgrade your plan or split your reconciliation into smaller periods.

Importing Files

1

Exporting from Your Bank

Most banks allow statement exports in CSV or Excel format:

  1. Log in to your online banking
  2. Navigate to statements or transaction history
  3. Select the date range you want to reconcile
  4. Look for an "Export" or "Download" option
  5. Choose CSV or Excel format
  6. Save the file to your computer

Tip:

For specific instructions on exporting from your bank, click the "Instructions" button on the ReconcileIQ upload page and select your bank from the dropdown.

2

Exporting from Your Accounting Software

Follow these general steps to export from your accounting system:

  1. Log in to your accounting software
  2. Navigate to the bank account section or reports
  3. Select the same date range as your bank statement
  4. Look for an "Export" or "Download" option
  5. Choose CSV or Excel format
  6. Save the file to your computer

Tip:

For specific instructions on exporting from your accounting software, click the "Instructions" button on the ReconcileIQ upload page and select your software from the dropdown.

3

Uploading to ReconcileIQ

Once you have both files, upload them to ReconcileIQ:

  1. On the main page, locate the "Bank Statement" file upload section
  2. Click "Choose File" or drag and drop your bank statement file
  3. Repeat the process for your accounting records in the "Bookkeeping Software" section
  4. Click the "Reconcile Statements" button to proceed

Important:

Make sure you upload the correct file to each section. Mixing up bank and accounting files will lead to incorrect reconciliation results.

Field Mapping

1

Understanding the Mapping Modal

After uploading your files, the mapping modal will appear:

  • The top section shows your bank statement columns
  • The bottom section shows your accounting records columns
  • Blue overlays indicate the system's automatic mapping of columns
  • The toggle buttons at the top of each section let you select what type of column to map
ReconcileIQ Mapping Modal
2

Adjusting Column Mappings

If the automatic mapping isn't correct, you can adjust it:

  1. Click and drag the blue column overlays to move them
  2. Use the toggle buttons to select the type of column you want to map (Date, Description, Amount, etc.)
  3. For amount fields, you can map either a single amount column or separate debit/credit columns
  4. Review the sample data shown to ensure the mapping is correct

Pro Tip:

The mapping interface is fully interactive. You can drag column mappings from anywhere on the screen, including from above the header section.

3

Setting Currency

In the mapping modal, you can also specify the currency for your files:

  1. Locate the "Currency of Files" dropdown at the top of the mapping modal
  2. Select the appropriate currency (GBP, EUR, or USD)
  3. This ensures amounts are interpreted correctly during reconciliation

Note:

Both files should use the same currency. If you need to reconcile accounts in different currencies, you may need to convert them first.

4

Confirming and Proceeding

Once you're satisfied with the mapping:

  1. Double-check that date, amount, and description fields are correctly mapped in both files
  2. Verify that the sample data shown looks correct
  3. Click the "These columns are correct" button at the bottom of the modal
  4. The system will begin processing your reconciliation

Important:

Taking the time to ensure correct mapping will lead to more accurate reconciliation results and save you time in the long run.

  • These represent items you need to add to your accounting system
  • Use the search box to filter for specific transactions
  • Click on any transaction to see its full details

Tip:

Export this list to add these transactions to your accounting system. Once added, you can re-run the reconciliation to confirm they've been addressed.

3

Extra Transactions Tab

This tab shows transactions that appear in your accounting records but not in your bank statement:

  • These may be pending transactions, errors, or future-dated entries
  • Review each item to determine the appropriate action
  • Common causes include timing differences and duplicate entries
  • Use the search functionality to find specific items

Important:

Not all extra transactions need to be removed from your books. Some may be legitimate entries that haven't cleared the bank yet.

4

Overview & Insights Tab

This tab provides visual analysis and insights about your reconciliation:

  • Charts: Visual representation of matched vs. unmatched transactions
  • Summary Statistics: Key figures about your reconciliation
  • Insights Panel: Automated observations about your data

Use this tab to get a high-level understanding of your reconciliation status.

Handling Discrepancies

1

Fuzzy Matching

ReconcileIQ provides fuzzy matching suggestions for unmatched transactions:

  • Look for transactions with a "Possible Match" indicator
  • The confidence percentage shows how likely the match is correct
  • Click to view the potential matching transaction
  • If it's a correct match, you can confirm it manually

Note:

Fuzzy matching is available on Essential plans and above. It helps identify transactions that might match despite differences in dates or descriptions.

2

Batch Matching

For Pro plans and above, batch matching helps with complex scenarios:

  • Identifies when multiple transactions on one side match a single transaction on the other
  • Common examples include split payments or batched deposits
  • Look for "Batch Match" indicators in the results
  • Click to see the related transactions that make up the match

Pro Tip:

Batch matching is particularly useful for businesses that process multiple payments as a single bank transaction or vice versa.

3

Resolving Missing Transactions

To handle transactions missing from your books:

  1. Export the list of missing transactions from ReconcileIQ
  2. Add these transactions to your accounting system
  3. Make sure to use the same date and amount shown in the bank statement
  4. Consider using the bank's description to ensure future matches
  5. Re-run the reconciliation to verify these items are now matched

Tip:

For recurring transactions that consistently appear as missing, consider setting up automated rules in your accounting software.

4

Handling Extra Transactions

For transactions in your books but not your bank statement:

  1. Review each transaction carefully - not all need to be removed
  2. Check if they are legitimate pending transactions
  3. Look for duplicates or errors that should be removed
  4. For valid pending items, keep them and reconcile again later
  5. For errors, remove or correct them in your accounting system

Important:

Always verify that a transaction is truly erroneous before removing it from your accounting system.

Pattern Analysis

1

Understanding Pattern Analysis

The Pattern Analysis tab helps identify recurring issues in your reconciliation:

  • Automatically detects patterns in unmatched transactions
  • Groups similar transactions for easier processing
  • Suggests potential causes for reconciliation issues
  • Helps develop strategies to prevent future discrepancies

Note:

Pattern Analysis is available on Pro plans and above.

  • Combined Entries: Multiple accounting entries combined into one bank transaction

For each pattern, the system suggests potential solutions to streamline future reconciliations.

3

Implementing Process Improvements

Use pattern analysis to improve your accounting processes:

  1. Review the suggested improvements in the pattern analysis tab
  2. Create standardized procedures for transaction entry
  3. Set up recurring entries for regular payments

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

File Upload Problems

If you're having trouble uploading files:

  • File Format: Ensure your file is in CSV, XLS, or XLSX format
  • File Size: Check that the file is under the 50MB limit
  • Row Count: Verify that the number of rows doesn't exceed your plan limit
  • Character Encoding: If using CSV, try saving with UTF-8 encoding
  • Browser Issues: Try a different browser or clear your cache

Tip:

If your file is too large, try exporting a smaller date range or splitting it into multiple files.

Mapping Difficulties

If you're experiencing issues with column mapping:

  • Column Headers: Make sure your files include column headers
  • Manual Mapping: If automatic mapping fails, try dragging the blue overlays manually
  • Non-Standard Headers: For unusual column names, manual mapping is often required
  • Split Amounts: For separate debit/credit columns, map both using the appropriate toggle buttons

Important:

Accurate column mapping is crucial for successful reconciliation. Take time to verify each mapping before proceeding.

Matching Issues

If you're getting unexpected matching results:

  • Date Format Inconsistencies: Ensure dates are correctly interpreted
  • Amount Format Differences: Check for decimal/thousand separator issues
  • Transaction Timing: Verify that both files cover the same date range
  • Description Differences: Be aware that banks and accounting systems often use different descriptions for the same transaction

Tip:

If many transactions aren't matching, consider upgrading to a plan with fuzzy matching for better results.

Error Messages

Common Error Messages

Here are explanations and solutions for common error messages:

  • Error: "File format not supported"

    Solution: Ensure your file is CSV, XLS, or XLSX format. Other formats are not supported.

  • Error: "Required columns not found"

    Solution: Your file must contain date, amount, and description columns. Check that these exist and are properly mapped.

  • Error: "File exceeds row limit"

    Solution: Your file has more rows than your current plan allows. Upgrade your plan or reduce the date range.

  • Error: "Invalid date format"

    Solution: The system cannot interpret your date format. Try standardizing dates to YYYY-MM-DD format.

  • Error: "Insufficient credits"

    Solution: You've used all available transaction credits. Purchase more credits or wait for your next monthly allocation.
