Reconciliation is an accounting process used to compare two sets of records to ensure the figures are in agreement and are accurate. It is the key process used to determine whether the money leaving an account matches the amount spent, ensuring the two values are balanced at the end of the recording period. In Payment Reconciliation, the invoices are matched against the payments made to the bank. Thus if you have many payments which are not reconciled with their respective invoices, you can use the payment reconciliation tool.

To use Payment Reconciliation Tool go to,

Accounts > Tools > Payment Reconciliation
