"Find" feature in bank feeds - matching one payment to two different transactions

Bengen

Hi,

 

I made one payment which is for two different transactions. It appears in the find feature of bank feeds as the two different transactions. How can I allocate the one payment to the two transactions as it will only allow me to select one of them,

HI @Bengen 

 

AccountRight only allows for a single transaction to be matched to a single bank feed transaction. As such its not possible to match one bank feed transaction to multiple transactions. As AccountRight does not allow more than one transaction to be matched to a bank feed, you can either hide the bank feed transaction or make the two transactions become one.

 

To hide the bank feeds transaction right click on it and choose Hide. This moves that bank feed transaction to the hidden section, however you will need to tick both transactions in the Reconcile Accounts window so they get included in the reconciliation.

 

Alternatively, the other option is to combine the two transactions into one. This can either be done by using a couple of journal entries to move the amounts into a clearing account followed by another journal entry to move the consolidated balance back. Alternatively you could delete and redo the payments to then combine them using an electronic payment.
