Accounting
Import and reconcile bank transactions
Import a statement and review matches before reconciling transactions.
Before you begin
- Sign in to Eva and select the intended project.
- Use fictional records when practising; changes affect the selected business.
Starting screen: /dashboard/accounting
1. Open statement import
In native books open Banking, then scroll to Statement import.
Expected result: The inline Statement import controls are visible. Choose the intended Statement account.
Confirm it worked: Confirm the selected business books and intended bank statement.
2. Choose the CSV
Use Statement CSV and select the supported statement file. Review the format/mapping instructions displayed by the form.
Expected result: A parsed preview and Import statement button appear when the CSV is valid.
Confirm it worked: Use a fictional CSV during training; verify dates, descriptions and signed amounts.
3. Import the statement
Click Import statement and inspect Bank statements and Bank transactions.
Expected result: Imported transactions are listed for the books.
Confirm it worked: Check counts, date range and totals before matching.
4. Review and confirm a match
Search transactions with Search bank transactions. Inspect a proposed document match, such as Match [document reference], and confirm only after comparing identity and amount.
Expected result: The transaction is matched through the supported reconciliation control.
Confirm it worked: Verify the linked document and remaining unmatched records.
Troubleshooting and alternatives
An import is not proof all transactions are reconciled. Review duplicates and unmatched rows separately.
CSV parsing and matching failures should be corrected through the displayed workflow, not by repeatedly importing an unchanged statement.
