Suppose your bank data resembles the following:

 

 

In Figure 1 above, Bank Reconciliation will treat each of the amounts as a whole dollar value.  In other words, Bank Reconciliation will handle check 1892 as being issued for the amount $42,793.00.  However, that amount should actually be $427.93.  Follow these steps to turn on decimal periods. The bank and general ledger can be set separately as you will see below.

 

Select the Settings tab > Import,System tab > Import tab.

Under the import tab:

a.For Bank data, set "Imported amounts need decimals - Bank" to "On"

b.For General Ledger data, set "Imported amounts need decimals - G/L" to "On"

 

If you are using a version prior to 2013.

1. At the Bank Reconciliation Main Screen, Select File from the main menu.

2. Select Options, then General.

3. Under the Import tab:

a. For Bank data, set "Imported amounts need decimals - Bank" to "On"

b. For General Ledger data, set "Imported amounts need decimals - G/L" to "On"

4. Click Close.
