Bank & reconciliation

This page covers how to record bank and cash activity and match it to your invoices and bills in EVERJUST Accounting.

Record transactions by hand

EVERJUST does not pull a live feed from your bank. You enter bank and cash transactions yourself, working from your statement.

1. Open the bank or cash journal in Accounting.
2. Create a statement line for each transaction.
3. Set the date, the amount, and a label.
4. Save the lines so they are ready to reconcile.

Reconcile

Reconciliation matches each statement line to the invoice, bill, or payment behind it.

1. Open the reconciliation view for the journal.
2. Pick a statement line.
3. Choose the open invoice or bill it pays.
4. Confirm when the amounts agree.

A matched line marks the document as paid and keeps your ledger balance in step with your statement.

Tips

• Reconcile often. Short, frequent sessions beat one long one.
• Match by amount and date first, then check the customer or vendor.
• For a line that has no document, post it straight to an account, such as a bank fee to an expense account.
• Finish a statement only when the closing balance matches the bank.

Live bank-feed sync is not part of this Community-based product. Record every bank and cash transaction by hand.
