Automatically match transactions for reconciliation

Save time and automate your reconciliation process by bringing bank transactions into Sage Intacct with an import file or bank feed. Each account needs to have a rule set to automatically match transactions for reconciliation.

Automatically match transactions from an import file

Use Bank transaction assistant file import to import bank and credit card transactions for reconciliation. Transactions automatically match against Intacct transactions for reconciliation using the account's rule set.

If you unmatch a transaction that has been matched by a rule, the rule will continue to match other transactions but will ignore the transaction you have unmatched. If another transaction exists that is a match, then when the rule set runs again, that transaction will match.

Although you can currently use the classic import experience, this method is going away no earlier than May 2026. This change does not impact any custom integrations that use the Intacct API.

Automatically match transactions from a bank feed

Download transactions directly from the bank with a bank feed. As soon as bank transactions download into Intacct, they’re matched against existing Intacct transactions. Learn more about bank feeds.

Use the Bank transaction assistant file import to import missing bank feed transactions, or if your bank does not offer a bank feed connection.
