Completing Reconciliations

A Reconciliation is a 'draft' until it is Completed. You can save and edit a draft Reconciliation as much as you need to. Your aim is to bring the Reconciliation into balance: where all lines on the paper statement are correctly reflected on the system, implying a difference of zero. Once the Reconciliation is 'in balance' you will see a 'Complete' button. Completing a Reconciliation changes its status from 'draft' and makes it permanent on the system - you won't be able to edit it in the future.

Before completing a Reconciliation, make sure you're confident it reflects reality. In practice, if the 'starting balance' and 'ending balance' have been faithfully entered and you have reconciled to the point of zero difference, it is extremely unlikely for there to be any mistakes in your reconciliation.
