How to do bank reconciliation via Visma

Managing your business finances can be a challenge, but with the right tools, the process becomes much smoother. An important part of this is bank reconciliation, where you match the transactions in your bank account with your accounting records to ensure everything is correct. With Visma Business version 16, you can now perform bank reconciliation easily and efficiently, saving time and reducing the risk of errors.

Customers go to the Bank Reconciliation window under Accounting and Procedures.

You compare the transactions at the bank with the bookkeeping in Visma. The book balance in Visma shows the balance in the bank.

Select the dates you want to reconcile, both on the right and left side. See the image below. Right-click and select "processing" and then "manual reconciliation." Then the transactions will match and disappear.

Choose to deactivate instead of manual reconciliation if the transactions match but are on different dates despite the same amount. Manual matching and deactivation may be needed if the currency does not match.

You can select bank reconciliation, processing, reconciled transactions, right-click and select processing to deactivate the match if something went wrong. Here you can also reactivate.

Select Bank reconciliation, authorization under bank reconciliation, fill in the desired period and print. A mark will appear on the account that it is reconciled.

You can download a file of reconciled transactions, which is an easy way to show the auditor that the accounts and period are reconciled.

In Autopay, you can set the bank not to split the amounts in the accounts.

You can also set up automatic matching.

Traventus helps you set up accounts for recurring transactions from the bank and records them directly in your accounts. These can be, for example, bank charges, interest and transactions from the Swedish Tax Agency.

You can also set up to automatically close open items at the bank. Visma then posts the voucher directly, and you see that everything is even. The system automatically posts incoming payments, outgoing payments, bank charges and advance payments. This is particularly useful when used by external accountants, for example.
