Reconciliation Reports

Daily/Weekly/Monthly/Quarterly Reconciliation (Using Tag Breakdown)

This reconciliation report uses the Account field in the Items Reconciled menu and is filtered by USD Currency and JP Morgan Institution with a Prior Day View. The Tag Breakdown feature is also used to filter by the top 3 parent tags of the company (Receipts, Disbursements, and Book Transfers). The number of filters and tags used is totally subjective.

Purpose: The purpose of this report is multifaceted. Users can leverage this report to verify that net transaction activity is equal to the change in balance for any given account on any given (prior) business day. Additionally, users can leverage the report, and specifically the tag breakdown, to understand what transactions for a given day fall into which respective transaction categories (i.e. Receipts, Disbursements, Book Transfers, etc.). The "Other" line item is a catch all for any transactions that either do not yet have a tag OR do have a tag, but the assigned tag has not been included in the Tag Breakdown.
