Grouped bank transactions

Summary

How to check or group bank transactions in certain areas of Sage 50 Accounts.

Description

To make it easier to analyse and reconcile your bank transactions, you can group related entries in the Bank Activity and Bank Reconciliation windows. This helps streamline your workflow and improves clarity when reviewing transactions.

The software automatically groups bank transactions when you enter them in the batch entry window, using the same date and reference.

TIP:

If there isn't a reference on the transaction, the software hasn't grouped it. 

You can change these settings at any time to suit your way of working.

Resolution

Group bank transactions in bank activity

  1. Go to Settings, then select Bank Defaults.
  2. Select Group Bank Transactions.

TIP:

This isn’t a retrospective change. If you clear the checkbox before posting transactions, the system doesn’t group them when you select it. Likewise, if you group transactions using this option, clearing the checkbox doesn’t ungroup them.

 

Group items in your bank reconciliation

Select or clear the checkbox at any time to group or ungroup transactions. You can still group transactions in the Bank Reconciliation window if they don't show as grouped on the audit trail.

If items remain grouped in bank reconciliation when you clear the checkbox, the Group Bank Transactions above option grouped them.
  1. Go to Settings, then select Bank Defaults.
  2. Select the Group items in Bank Rec. checkbox.

TIP:

Check the Grouped column in the Bank Reconciliation window. A 'Y' shows grouped transactions.
