Reconciliation

Question asked by Kris Saxton 10 years ago

Hello,

Recently, I reconciled some supplier payments as they came in. Then at the end of the month, I start reconciling the bank statement. However, as one of the supplier payments was for multiple invoices and it is already been marked paid, ClearBooks doesn't list it as an option for reconciling.

Can anyone suggest a solution to this? I don't know the repercussions of just deleting the supplier payment, but don't know how to connect it to the previously reconciled invoices!

Thanks,

Yes, just deleted the payment from the bank import. So long as the items reflected separately add up to the same as the big one you'll be deleting and everything balances you'll be fine.

Do the supplier payments on your physical bank statement total the same as those currently in the Clear Books bank?

I'm not actually sure, but yes, they probably do. I have connected the invoices to the payments in ClearBooks, so it shows them as being paid. It just can't work out what the lump sum is doing in the statement and doesn't realise that that has already been accounted for. Perhaps I can just delete the payment? ClearBooks knows that the invoices have been paid and the money received, so presumably that would work?

Great, thanks very much for your help. Very kind of you!
