Summary

How to match incoming bank transactions to existing outstanding transactions in Sage Accounting.

Description

How it works

Each transaction shows in your bank feed, oldest first. For money out of the account, the amount is in red.

Decide how to process each transaction. Use the Match, Create, or Transfer buttons in the middle of the transaction. 

In this article, we'll cover using the Match option. Use this option to pay outstanding invoices or match outstanding payments or receipts already processed.

 TIP: Consider setting up bank rules to process these transactions automatically, based on your predefined criteria. 

Resolution

  1. From Banking, select Transactions on the connected account.
  2. Select the Match tab on the transaction you want to process.
  3. Select the checkbox of one or more transactions that make up the total value.
     TIP: Use the Search button to find transactions filtered by Period (date range) or Type. 
  4. Review the chosen transactions, or select New Transaction to add a new Other Receipt, Payment on Account or Bank Transfer.
  5. If you still have an amount Left to match, select Make adjustment to record any additional fees.
  6. Once your Total matches the value of your bank feed transaction, select Match
