Bank reconciliation

Import a statement

1. Create the bank account in Tasur once, with its opening balance.
2. Download a statement file from your internet bank. Tasur imports CSV and OFX files today.
3. Upload the file. The import shows a preview of the lines and skips duplicates before anything is saved.

Match the lines

Each statement line is matched to something the books already know about: an open invoice, a bill or a payment. Tasur suggests matches by amount, date and reference, and you confirm them.

A line with no counterpart can be recorded directly from the reconciliation screen. One bank line can also be split across several records, for when a single payment covers more than one invoice.

Teach it your regulars with bank rules

Recurring lines such as bank fees, rent or software subscriptions deserve a rule, not a monthly decision. A bank rule matches lines by their description and codes them to the right account and VAT code automatically. Create rules under Bank rules, and apply them to all open lines with one action.

When are you done?

Reconciliation is finished when every statement line is matched and the bank balance in Tasur equals the balance the bank shows. Do it weekly and it stays a five minute job.
