    (1). Matching Bank Statement Lines with TransactionsReconciling bank statements in Cash Management has two major steps: matching andclearing.- Matching: Match a bank statement line against a Payables payment, Receivablesreceipt, Cash Management cashflow, Payroll payment, miscellaneous transaction, or open interface transaction using a transaction number (such as the payment ordeposit number), bank account, amount, and currency. You can match a statement line against a Treasury settlement using date and amount. You can also match a statement line against a General Ledger journal entry. Whenever localizations hasreconciliation function enabled in payments, you can match a bank statement against a Payroll EFT payment by using transaction number and date. If matching criteria are not met, the statement line remains unmatched. For manual reconciliation, there are no restrictions for matching statement lines and transactions.- Clearing: Clear the transactions that are matched to the bank statement line,if the transactions have not been cleared previously. Only Payables payments, Receivables receipts, Cash Management cashflows, miscellaneous transactions, and open interface transactions can be cleared. Reconciled Payroll payments and General Ledger journal entries are matched but not cleared. You can report on reconciliation exceptions, variances, and items that have been matched.
