Check bank balance and completeness
Compare the bank balance with the ledger without hiding missing statements or entries.
Equal bank and ledger balances do not by themselves prove everything is correct. The check also considers statement coverage from the chosen starting date and incomplete or stale entry links.
Step by step
- 1Explicitly select an as-of date for the account. The reconciliation API uses the bank balance on that date and posted movements through that date.
- 2Review the bank balance, ledger balance and difference in the account currency. For a foreign-currency account this is the original currency amount, not its converted carrying value.
- 3Check missing statement days, missing pages and uncertain or conflicting balances. A timestamped balance is not automatically evidence of a day-end balance.
- 4A full-day export from exactly 00:00:00 through exactly 23:59:59 also includes the final day. Any fractional seconds must be zero. Actual partial days and missing pages remain review issues.
- 5Review unlinked, partially linked and stale entries. Missing booking dates remain separately visible.
- 6Add missing sources or postings and request the check again. The check itself does not post or correct anything.
What is on the screen?
- As-of date
- Bank balance, ledger balance and difference
- Statement completeness
- Incomplete or uncertain entries
What happens next?
Only matching balances, complete source coverage and entries without outstanding review issues produce a reconciled result. An unavailable bank balance means unknown, not zero.
For developers
- GET accounts/{account_public_id}/reconciliation requires banking:read and the mandatory as_of_date query. It is one complete projection without pagination, request body or writes.
