To generate electronic Bank Statement files for Automated Bank Reconciliation‍ you can:

• Use your Online Bank or Credit Card Export facility. See Generating Bank Statement Files (Online Banking)‍ 
• Scan hard copies of your Bank or Credit Card Statements. Then, using AutoRec, convert them into electronic files and import these into the Bank Reconciliation.

Use these facilities as frequently as possible. This allows the system to match and reconcile as many transactions as possible with that of your bank, clearing up any discrepancies between the two as close as possible to the occurrence of any miss-matches.

When you first present a Bank or Credit Card Statement, AutoRec will recognise that it is new. The system will then examine and configure the layout and save these details for future processing of these statement types. This initial examination and configuration will take some time, perhaps several hours, to appear in the Bank Statement Inbox.
