Manually match (clear) transactions for reconciliation
There are two scenarios in which you’re manually matching (or clearing) transactions:
-
If you're reconciling against a physical bank statement (there are no bank transactions in Sage Intacct to match against), you can clear Intacct transactions for reconciliation.
These cleared transactions are considered "Matched" when you filter for them on the reconciliation page. In register reports, the transactions appear as "Cleared" after you finalize the reconciliation by selecting the Reconcile button. Until then, they appear as "In Transit".
-
If you're reconciling with an import file or bank feed, manually match Intacct to bank transactions and vice versa.
To reconcile with an import file or bank feed, your account needs to be set up with a rule set. If there are any transactions remaining that were not matched by the rule set, manually match them instead.
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.
Matching transactions updates the Amount to reconcile field on the account reconciliation page.

Do you need to filter for transactions?
The transaction is now considered "Matched" for reconciliation. To view your cleared transaction, use the State dropdown list to filter for Matched transactions. Make sure to select Apply filters.
Next step: Continue to match transactions, and create additional transactions if needed, to balance your account. When the Amount to reconcile is zero, and with the appropriate permissions, finalize the reconciliation.
Match an imported or bank feed transaction to an existing transaction in Intacct
To match transactions from an import file or bank feed, create rules to define how to match transactions, add those rules to a rule set, and then assign the rule set to the account. Learn more about rules and rule sets.
On the account reconciliation page, find bank transactions on the Bank tab. Transactions entered in Intacct appear on the Intacct tab. Start matching transactions from either tab.
