Reconciling an account

Reconciling confirms that what Omnyra shows for an account matches what the bank actually shows. It is done one statement period at a time, and the point of it is not tidiness — it is that an unreconciled account means every number built on it is unproven.

What the page shows

Each connected account appears with four figures: the statement balance, the book balance, the difference between them, and how many transactions are still unreconciled.

When the difference is zero and nothing is outstanding, the account reads All Reconciled. That is the state you are working toward.

Reconciling from a statement

  1. Open Accounting → Reconciliation and select the account.
  2. Upload the statement PDF for the period.
  3. Omnyra reads the statement and pulls out the closing balance and the transactions on it. Larger statements take a moment.
  4. Review what it found, then confirm.

Multiple statements can be uploaded at once, which is the usual approach when catching up several months.

When the difference is not zero

A difference is information, not an error. The common causes, in the order worth checking:

Timing. A payment sent near the end of the period that had not cleared by the statement date. It will reconcile next period on its own.

A transaction the bank has and Omnyra does not, usually because the connection was interrupted. Reconnect the account and the missing period backfills.

A duplicate, most often when the same payment arrived through two connected systems. This is what the unified ledger is designed to catch, but a payment recorded manually as well as automatically can still slip through.

A genuine error — a wrong amount, or something posted to the wrong account.

Work down that list before assuming the last one.

Field service payments

If a field service system is connected, Omnyra also checks that payments recorded there have a matching bank deposit. When every one does, it says so plainly. When one does not, it is named, because a job marked paid with no money behind it is worth knowing about the same week rather than at year end.

How often

Monthly, when the statement arrives, is enough for most businesses. The cost of falling behind is not the reconciling itself — it is that a discrepancy is easy to explain a month later and nearly impossible to explain a year later.
