GENERAL LEDGER
CLEARING ACCOUNTS RECONCILIATION

Clearing accounts reconciliation offers sophisticated automatic and manual methods to group, match and
reconcile related 'in' and 'out' journal lines that no longer contribute to an account ending balance. Resources
can instead be deployed wisely towards analyzing unreconciled journal lines that are both relevant and
responsible for the buildup of the ending balance in a clearing account. Clearing accounts reconciliation helps
to shorten the period close cycle where account reconciliations are critical activities.
In one central setup location, define reconciliation types that represent reconcilable clearing accounts (for
example, asset clearing, accounts payable accrual, unbilled receivables) and their associated reconciliation
rules. Enter journal lines with reconciliation references to automatically reconcile with minimal user intervention
and enhanced productivity. Use tolerances when performing manual reconciliation, to further enhance the
success rate of journal lines getting reconciled. Correct previous reconciliations by subsequently reversing
them. Run reconciliation reports and perform inquiries to retrieve and analyze reconciled and unreconciled
journal lines.
JOURNAL POSTING IMPROVEMENTS

Enhanced error reporting of journal posting issues helps users resolve issues quickly and independently.
Ability to search for journals with errors on the Manage Journals user interface.

Aging report only considers the invoices that are accounted in Payables and transferred to the General Ledger.

SYSTEM
Streamline credit-to-cash processing with seamless integration between third-party order management or

processing for single transactions.
