The business activity in most organizations today is multilayered and complex. However, despite sophisticated accounting systems in use to cater to these needs, account reconciliation continues to be that one indispensable step to ensure that all the figures add up right.
Account reconciliation is the procedure of verifying that all accounting records of an organization are consistent with the bank statements. It also ensures that the various components of the company's financial statements agree with each other. Account reconciliation thus entails a detailed check of an organization's financial records, bank statements, client and vendor bills and all supporting documents to detect discrepancies, address them and reconcile the final balance. It accounts for checks outstanding, deposits in transit and reveals errors in the records.
Account reconciliation is an integral part of a company's internal financial controls. Accurate account reconciliation reports are an indication of effective tracking and interim controls. Accounting reconciliation is a vital tool for company auditors to determine the veracity of a company's financial statements and its internal reporting.
