Check Reconciliation

Use this option to reconcile pay checks against the data file provided by your bank. The Check Reconciliation option references the Bank File Format table, which identifies the bank and tells the system where to look for check numbers, amounts, and other information in the file.

During processing, the system compares check numbers from the Check Reconciliation (checkrec) table against those in the data file. If a check number matches, the check is marked as cleared.

Differences in amounts are noted in the Payroll Check Reconciliation report, which also lists checks that were already cleared or voided. The report's default file name is reconcile.rpt.
