- Go to Cash Management, Setup, Bank Accounts, General tab. Confirm the Last reconciled date and the Last reconciled balance are correct. Verify the Last reconciled balance matches the ending balance on the bank statement.
- Outstanding or open items are correct and have a Reconciliation Status of O. Look for previously reconciled items changed to "O" for error correction but weren’t re-reconciled. Look for items that should be outstanding/open but aren’t. Their status may have changed to C or R. Correct items with a status of C to O or R before correcting balances.
- You can use CM Inquiry, Bank Register to see outstanding/open items. Drill down from Bank Account to transactions, and add a condition for the Reconciliation Status equal to O. If you find items with an incorrect Reconciliation Status, change the status of the transaction in Cash Management.
- Cleared but not reconciled items should have a Reconciliation Status of C. These items are marked cleared between bank statement reconciliations when using Import Cleared Checks. Look for previously reconciled items that have been changed for error correction that don't have the R status.
- Look for items that have a cleared status (C) but should be outstanding/open (O).
