Refresh a bank feed
A manual refresh only fetches transactions that posted at the bank from the previous business day. Because Sage Intacct automatically refreshes bank feeds every 4 hours, you should have all of the previous day's transactions available to you when you log in the next day.
Depending on your permissions, you can manually refresh a bank feed from either the Banking cloud tab of the account or during reconciliation.
Read FAQs about bank feeds to answer some common questions about refreshing a bank feed.
Some banks require you to reauthorize your bank feed connection before you receive new transactions. This is a security process put in place by your bank. You'll know if you need to reauthorize if you see a bank feed status of Auth required.

No, transactions from the current day are not available.
Transactions typically appear in Sage Intacct on the business day after they post at the bank. Transactions appear on the Bank transactions list, the Banking cloud tab of the account, and the Bank tab during reconciliation. In some cases, it can take up to 5 business days for transactions to appear.
Example: Transactions that post at the bank on Friday can appear in Intacct as early as Saturday. As weekends are usually non-business days for banks, no transactions post at the bank on Saturday or Sunday. That means that there are no bank feed transactions in Intacct on Monday. Monday's bank transactions appear as early as Tuesday.
If it's taking longer than usual for transactions to arrive in the system, do not disconnect from the bank feed. Instead, wait until you see a bank feed status of Partial success or Failed and refresh the feed. Or, check out Missing transactions from a bank feed.

Select the Account to reconcile from the dropdown list.
I do not see the account that I need in the Account to reconcile dropdown list.The following are reasons why you're not seeing an account in the list:
-
Is your account set up appropriately?
Check to be sure that the GL account is associated with the bank.
-
Where was the account created?
Accounts created at the top level can only be reconciled at the top level. Accounts created at the entity level can only be reconciled within that entity.
How do I know where an account was created?Slide into an entity. On the account list, any account that you have Edit capabilities for is an account that was created within that entity.
Accounts designated as Not owned were created in another entity.
-
There might be restrictions or permissions required to access the account.
Only unrestricted users can reconcile accounts at the top level. To reconcile an account within an entity, user entity restrictions need to be equivalent to or greater than those of the account.
ExampleIf an account is restricted to Entity A and Entity B, a user needs to have restrictions for both to reconcile the account. The user can also have access to other entities, even though they aren't included in the account's location restrictions. However, if the user only has access to Entity A (and not Entity B), the user cannot reconcile the account.
If your company is configured to Enable user entity restrictions for bank accounts and you are a restricted user, you will not see bank accounts for entities of which you do not have access.
