Bank Reconciliation

How to reconcile your books with your bank statements.

Bank reconciliation is the process of matching transactions in your accounting records with transactions on your bank statement. This ensures your books are accurate and helps catch errors or missing entries.

Why Reconcile?

  • Catch duplicate or missing transactions
  • Identify bank fees or charges you have not recorded
  • Verify that your book balance matches the actual bank balance
  • Maintain accurate financial reports

How It Works in dubbl

  1. Navigate to Accounting > Banking and select a bank account
  2. Click Reconcile
  3. Enter the closing balance and date from your bank statement
  4. Match transactions in dubbl with transactions on the statement
  5. Mark matched transactions as reconciled
  6. Investigate any differences

Importing Bank Transactions

Before reconciling, import your bank transactions:

  • CSV import - Upload a CSV file from your bank
  • Batch imports - Import multiple files at once

See Banking for details on importing and managing bank transactions.

Tips

  • Reconcile regularly (weekly or monthly) to keep discrepancies small
  • Start from the last reconciled date to avoid re-checking old transactions
  • Use the unreconciled transaction list to spot items that need attention
