  • Click the View Bank Statement icon on the Book to Bank Reconciliation Details page.

This example illustrates the fields and controls on the Bank Balance Entry page. You can find definitions for the fields and controls later on this page.

Bank Balance Entry page

Field or Control

Description

File ID

Displays the bank statement number provided by the bank. This field is populated during import of MT940, BAI2, and FINSTA statements and is display-only. The user cannot change the File ID for a bank statement that has been loaded into the system.

When you manually create a new bank statement, you can enter the File ID value. The File ID value appears as display-only during update mode.

Bank Balances

Enter the statement code, value date, and balance amount for each item. If you receive bank statements electronically, the system populates these fields.

Note: The system balances the opening and closing ledger amounts with the sum of the daily transactions and displays a warning message if the amounts are unbalanced. It uses the default balance codes 010 - OPENING BALANCE and 015 - CLOSING BALANCE. If your organization uses different balance codes, you must edit the following with your preferred default code values: the component BANK_BALSTMT_ENTRY, the record BNK_RCN_CYC, and Saveedit PeopleCode.
