How do I configure PENTA to use the Bank Reconciliation Module?

Why is the Bank Account name grey, not able to be selected, in the Bank Rec module?

Applies To

Bank Reconciliation > Bank Account Filter

PENTA for Windows 21.2 and up

Resolution/Fix/Answer

In order to use the Bank Reconciliation, the following need to be setup:

Bank Number

Bank Account for the Bank Number (click on Accounts in the Bank Name list to see the Accounts for that Bank)

Cash Account to Link the General Ledger to the Bank Account

Once these three are defined, a Bank Rec can be performed on the Bank Account.  However, transactions will need to be recorded to actually have something to reconcile.

*Important* - A New Document Type is used for the Bank Reconciliation Report.  Go to OnBase Configuration to add the FIN - Bank Reconciliation Doc Type to the appropriate OnBase User Group.

Note: Don't forget to link the new Cash Account to a Form Id to cut checks or make ACH Payments to Vendors from that Bank Account

Note: If a user does not have authorization to view a bank/bank account (this is driven by the user's OU Security), then all unavailable bank and bank account listings will be greyed out in the list.
