Balance Summary labels can be customized on the format definition, so the row labels may not match the previous definitions. Because some balance rows may be hidden for balance comparison reconciliations, some rows may be missing from the reconciliation.
Depending on the reconciliation configuration, balances may be displayed in up to three currency buckets: entered, functional, and reporting. Multiple currencies may exist within one bucket.
