Overview
Importing is the process to bring data into the program. For Bank Reconciliation, there will be at minimum two imports, one for bank data (or data external to your company) and one for general ledger data (data internal to your company). For Bank Reconciliation, you will only be importing general ledger data, specifically checks.
Required
Before importing it into Bank Reconciliation the data must exist in tabular-formatted source files.
Importing the data
You are free to use any or all of these methods for importing data.
Importing source files
Use one of these methods when all data is contained in source files.
See Importing Bank Data and Importing General Ledger Data for information on each of those imports.
Entering records manually
You would import manually when you need to add transactions not contained in a file. This saves you from having to create a file just to import the records. By its nature, manual imports are for very small numbers of transactions. It is far faster to use a file import.
