The structure of the process transaction view

Once your banking file has been uploaded or bank transactions automatically fetched online, you are transferred to the Process Transactions view. The steps below are identical no matter how your transactions have been imported, online or via file upload. 

This view is divided into several sections:

• The view is divided into 2 collapsible sections:
  • Unprocessed transactions at the top. These are the transactions Briox has not been able to match automatically.
  • Matched transactions at the bottom. Here you will find the transactions that have been automatically matched to their payments.
    
    
• On the left hand side you find the bank transaction uploaded automatically (online) or  contained in the file you uploaded from the Bank. These are payments to and from your account or card expenses.
  To display and work with incoming reference payments under process transactions (CAMT 54), check the box: Include reference payments. 
  
  
• On the right hand side, are the transactions you have registered in Briox. Here you can choose in the drop down menu if you want to display:
  •  Customer Invoices,
  • Supplier Invoices
  • Journals or
  • Templates you want to use to automatically code manual journals in banking.

Note:
The numbers that appear on the supplier invoice are the Serial number (always), the reference number and the invoice number. They appear in that order if all are filled in.

Note:
The invoices that appear here are both posted and unpaid or only partially paid. If the approval functionality has been turned on, supplier invoices must be approved for payment to appear here.

On both sides you have the possibility to additionally filter the transactions to make matching easier. 

Matching Transactions

When you have found two matching transactions, e.g. a bank transaction that is a payment for a supplier invoice, drag one and drop it onto the other. You can do this in either direction.

A modal pops up and here you can:

• Choose on or many difference accounts from the drop down menu if you need to account for a discrepancy between the payment and the invoice.  The amount infront of difference will then be posted to that account when the payment journal is created. See below.
  
  
• Overpayments from you customer can also be handled here.
  
  
• If you are creating a part payment leave the difference account empty so that the difference remains on the invoice. After being processed, the invoice will display both sums in the list: what is left to be paid/the total. See below.
  
  
• The Payment Date  can be changed if it should be different than what is registered on the uploaded transaction.

• The Payment Method is automatically the one linked to the bank account you are reconciling. (A bank account is set up as a payment method under: Settings - Accounting - Banking & Payments).

Click on OK and the match will land in the Matched Transactions list in the section at the bottom of your screen. Here the transactions are awaiting processing.

If you want to check a matched transactions, simply click on it to open it up. Here you can edit the deviation account and payment date.
