Before creating a Cash Book Correction entry ensure that the missing item has not been reconciled in error on another statement. This can be done using the Bank Search feature.
Once you are satisfied that the entry does not already exist in the system follow the steps below to create a cash book correction.
Open the Bank Reconciliation program from the main menu and create your statement as normal.
In the Reconcile screen select Cash Book Correction from the drop-down list at the top left-hand side of the screen.
In the detail boxes at the bottom of the screen, enter the data for the Cash Book Correction (Date, Reference, Type and Amount are mandatory fields and must be completed).
The amount entered should be for each individual entry, NOT a composite figure, as 'Adjustments' does not allow composite figures.
When the details have been entered, press the Return key on the keyboard or the tick to add the new entry to the list.
A reconciled entry will be added into your statement.
NB
βThe adjustments screen must be used to reconcile items recorded as cash book corrections with the items subsequently posted to the ledger for the same value and reference.
