What's the difference between reconciling clearing accounts manually and automatically?
The methods differ in tolerance handling and values for reconciliation references.
Manual reconciliation:
-
Uses the tolerances defined on the Create Reconciliation Type page. To reconcile, the net difference between total accounted debits and credits must be zero or within the specified tolerance level.
-
Doesn't require that journal lines have identical reconciliation reference values. Reconciliation references aren't even required.
Automatic reconciliation:
-
Doesn't use tolerances. To reconcile, the net difference between total accounted debits and credits must be zero.
-
Requires that journal lines have reconciliation reference values.
