In this article we explain how to manually enter records (both bank and general ledger).

Overview

The majority of the time, your data (either bank or general ledger) will be contained in source files that will be imported as an entire file.  This is efficient and accurate as it involves no data entry and the data is obtained directly from a bank or accounting system.

In some situations, however, you may need to import transactions manually.

1.  At Bank Reconciliation, select 'Add a Record' from the Home tab.

2.  Select 'Add Record(s)'. You will see the screen below.

In the dropdown box, you see listed the type of import.  In this case, the check will go into General Ledger data.  To enter into Bank data, change the option in the dropdown box.

3.  Fill out each of the fields with the appropriate data.  Every field is required.

Note:  Regardless of importing a check as general ledger or bank:

✓Enter voided checks as positive values (only general ledger)

✓Enter issued checks as negative values

When finished, click OK.

4.  For each check you need to add, repeat steps 1 through 3.

5.  Click OK.
