Bank Reconciliation Features Treasury Software's Bank Reconciliation provides an automated, secure, easy-to-use solution to quickly perform reconciliations from virtually any file source. Whether simply matching disbursement records or reconciling a credit card account with multiple merchant ID's, Bank Reconciliation provides a wide range of unique features. Although most of our clients only require a few of these features, others need more advanced capabilities. Bank Reconciliation meets the needs of businesses and banks of all sizes. Here is a sample of our unique features: Matching Records Automated Transaction Matching (ATM) Matching Rules Matching Field (alphanumeric) Many to Many Matching Credit Card Manual Matching Audit Trail Using two sets of data (typically bank data and internal data) this engine matches up to 2,000 records per minute, based on user selected matching rules. The ATM can be scheduled to run automatically - or it can be started from the user interface. Includes all the matching rules that a typical disbursement, depository or payroll account would need, such as check cleared-to-check issued, check issued-tocheck voided, and non-check bank to non-check internal. While a check number is typically used in financial applications - in some depository or non-financial reconciliations, an alphanumeric matching field is required. The value in the matching field can be either unique or non-unique (for many-to-many matching). The check number or matching field can be used in a many-to-many matching scenario. Match credit cards based on amount, credit card type, site (if used) and a date range. The Manual Matching window provides a list of both unmatched bank and unmatched internal records in a grid format - providing a point and click interface to match remaining records, if any, after the ATM process. Both the Automated Transaction Matching, as well as the Manual Matching window, provide for a unique audit trail number to track all the members/records in a match. Page 3 of 11
Risk Assessment Minimizes 'False Positives' Custom matching rules Period match information For the records which remain unmatched, a detailed explanation is provided as to why they did not match - allowing you to follow up based upon exposure and your own internal risk assessment. Explanations include (among others): --Check cleared bank, no G/L record --Check cleared more than once --Missing Deposit --Deposit in Transit --Outstanding Check --Unrecorded bank withdrawal --Amount on issued check differs from amount voided. Whenever possible, we recommend using a unique identifier, such as a check number or serially encoded deposit slip to eliminate false matches. If a unique number is not available, we provide the user with the tools / fields to assign as many attributes as possible to the record. Increasing attributes / characteristics assigned to a transaction will increase the true match percentage. Need a custom matching rule? We can help. Please contact our development department. When matched, the date of the offset record's transaction date is recorded. This allows for historical reporting by period (see Reporting - Historical) Importing Data Fully integrated with all major accounting, payroll, billing and industry-specific packages Single Entry and Batch File Import Universal Importer Copy and paste from Excel Bank Reconciliation is installed at your location, not an internet site, and therefore can be fully integrated and automated with your existing system. All transactions can be imported in batch, or entered manually. Bank Reconciliation can import from virtually any accounting, payroll or billing package. It can import from Excel, Access, comma delimited text files (csv) or fixed width text files. In addition to performing a 'traditional' file import, you can 'Copy and Paste' directly from Excel.

Historical data BAI Files When converting from a legacy system, Bank Reconciliation enables you to import unmatched historical data - such as outstanding checks, deposits in transit and other unreconciled internal and bank records Import BAI files directly into your bank records, or use our utility, BAI2Excel, to convert BAI files for third party systems. Multiple templates Create and save multiple import templates for your data sources. For example - credit card deposits may be in one format, yet fees may be in another. Bank Reconciliation remembers each setting. Reporting Full reporting capability, with Export to Excel and HTML Standard and date sensitive reports (historical reporting) Export industry standard reports, as well as user ad hoc reports to the screen, printer, Excel or HTML. By capturing date/period information at the time of a match, the user can run simple 'current' reports, as well as historical reports. For example, a check issued in January 2006, but not cleared until April 2006, will of course show as outstanding when running January, February and March. However, if at year end 2006, the auditors want a list of outstanding checks by month - simply run a period sensitive report to obtain the same results. Site enabled for Payroll Processing and Multi-unit location entities Tracking Automated Transaction Matching (ATM) Manual Matching Using the Bank Reconciliation Import Wizard, map the site or client number. The value will be available for all processes including Automated Transaction Matching (ATM), the Manual Matching Window and various reports. When a site number is provided, this is automatically added as a criteria in the matching process. For quick filtering by site (only showing records from a specific site) - a point and click drop down box of your site numbers is available Page 5 of 11
Merchant Account ID enabled for Credit Card Accounts Extract embedded Merchant ID from bank text field Merchant ID to site lookup table Four-attribute matching rule Manual Match sort by Credit Card Type / Site Quick Import of Merchant Numbers Traditionally, credit card deposits contain the merchant account ID within an embedded text field. The Credit Card module enables the user to extract this data and use the merchant ID for other purposes. One of the most common uses of an extracted merchant ID number is to convert it to a site number - this is what is often recorded on the general ledger data. Four attributes are used as criteria when matching credit card deposits: --days range (# between internal and bank) --amount --credit card type --site number When in the Manual Matching window, quickly sort based on credit card type and or site number. Populate the merchant number to site table quickly and easily with a basic import. If you prefer, you can manually add, or maintain the records one at a time. Security Full audit trails Password SQL Server Follow up notes field A full audit trail is created for each record - from import through matching. The application can be 'locked down' at the desktop access level with built-in security. For maximum database level security, we highly recommend our SQL Server version, which enables you to apply your own corporate security policies. Though the data is 'locked down' to preserve an audit trail, you can enter notes in the follow up field. This feature is typically used to indicate progress on unreconciled items or to delegate in a multi-user environment. Page 6 of 11
