6. Bank Reconciliation – Step 1 & 2 Reconciliation Wizard This is the first of 2 methods for reconciling bank accounts in CashManager. It requires that you have a bank statement printout in front of you before starting the reconciliation. Step 1 By simply recording the Closing balance and Date of the closing balance, you can then move to step 2 where the ticking of transaction begins. You can confirm that your last bank reconciliation is in order by verifying the opening balance on the bank statement with the opening balance showing on the screen Step 2 You can now simply tick the transactions in your cashbook that appear on your bank statement. The left mouse button is used to tick the transactions. During ticking-off, you may find it easier to re-sort the transactions on the screen. Editing transactions For transactions that require editing, you can simply right mouse click on the transaction and either edit the transaction or change it to an appropriate transaction type. The right mouse click is also used to add transactions from the bank statement that don’t appear in your cashbook. For Example: Interest received or Bank Charges. Bank Reconciliation Wizard

7. Bank Reconciliation – Step 3 Congratulations! Your cashbook is now reconciled with your bank statement. Step 3 Once all of your transactions are ticked off against your bank statement, you can then view and print a reconciliation report. This report includes a list of your unpresented cheques and deposits (if any exist). Out of Balance! If your reconciliation doesn’t balance it will be because you ticked an incorrect amount, or overlooked an item on the bank statement. Printing the Pro Forma bank statement makes finding this error a breeze. In Balance! Once you have completed the ticking off process and CashManager indicates that you are “In Balance”, the reconciliation will be finalised. Bank Reconciliation Wizard

8. Importing Bank Statements Importing bank statement transactions into CashManager This is the second method for reconciling your bank accounts within CashManager. By signing up with your banks Internet banking service, you can export bank statement transactions from their website, and import them into CashManager to auto-reconcile your bank accounts and auto-generate the transactions in the cashbook. Your bank CashManager accommodates bank statement files from all major trading banks throughout Australia. Each of those available in CashManager have a transaction export facility on their website. Overlapping transaction files The date ranges for the bank statement import must be consecutive to ensure that transactions are not duplicated when imported. CashManager provides a warning should this occur. The date of the last import is shown on the first screen of the import wizard Where did you save that file? CashManager remembers where you looked for that transaction file last time so you don’t need to spend time searching for the file you wish to import. Bank Statement import This method of reconciling your bank accounts provides you with the ability to perform simple or detailed allocations on any transaction you are importing into CashManager. These allocation methods can eliminate time consuming data-entry and mean you can complete your reconciliations quicker. Bank Statement import

9. CashManager Reports CashManager Reports CashManager offers a range of cashbook reports that can be generated by the user.

There is also a summary in the same form as the new short form BAS. After you have checked the report and GST Audit Trail, you can simply copy the totals onto the form supplied by the ATO. Closing your GST period After running the BAS Worksheet, you will be asked if you wish to “close” that GST period. Closing the period means that the amounts of all transactions in that period cannot be altered, and no more transactions can be entered for that period. This is an important control in maintaining the accuracy of future BAS Worksheets. BAS Worksheet

13. BAS Audit Trail BAS Worksheet Audit Trail The BAS Audit Trail is part of the BAS Worksheet, and lists all transactions during the period that make up each of the totals on the return. The report is broken up into the various categories that appear in the report. Any transaction that has a non-standard GST component, is highlighted with a hash symbol (#) enabling quick resolution of any GST issues. It is this report that ATO auditors will be most interested in. BAS Worksheet Audit Trail

Report Options All of the Customer Reports have filtering and sorting options. Like the cashbook reports, Customer reports are clear, easy to understand and easy to produce. Customer Invoicing Reports

22. Supplier Invoicing Supplier Invoicing Supplier invoicing in CashManager is much like the Customer Invoicing, although in this case you are allocating Supplier invoices to expenses within your chart of accounts. Supplier invoicing is not product driven, but allows you to enter a basic description of each Product/Service purchased. Unlimited Suppliers There is no limit to the number of Suppliers you can set-up in CashManager. Each new Supplier must have a default expense account from your chart of accounts to ensure that the payment of the invoice in the cashbook, is allocated appropriately. Auto-paying Supplier Invoices CashManager provides a Pay option on the main Supplier invoicing screen. This can be used to pay multiple invoices for a Supplier and to transfer the payment to your cashbook at the same time. This eliminates double ups with data-entry. Part-payments Part-payments for Supplier invoices can be completed using the Select Invoices option that appears on every transaction entry screen in the cashbook. Supplier Invoicing
