Cash Match
How to run a cash match in Valid8.
Activate the accounting extract
- Click the Accounting Extracts tile.
- Go to ALL EXTRACTS. Sort the list by GL TXNS, largest to smallest. This helps you to record which extracts are active and which extracts have had Cash Match run.
- Select one extract. Click Reimport on the toolbar.
- Wait. The extract status changes to PROCESSING and then to PROCESSED. A green check mark shows in the Active column. Refresh the page to see the status. Each reimport takes approximately 25 to 30 minutes.
Assign and enable the bank account
- Go back to the Process Map. Open the Bank Statements tile, or use the sidebar menu.
- Assign bank statements to the account that shows Available in the reconciliation area. Cash Match fails if the account has no statements.
- In the Account View, select the account on which Cash Match must run. Click Edit on the toolbar.
- Make sure that Available for Ledger Trace is selected.
Run Cash Match
- Go back to the Process Map. On the Cash Match tile, click the three-dot menu. Select Find New Matches.
- Enter the start date and the end date. The dates must agree with the start date and the end date of the general ledger. Click Start.
- Wait for Cash Match to complete. The system puts the workpaper in the Exports section automatically.
Get the results
- Run a new Matched ERP/Items report and a new Cash Match report after each run. This captures the new data. The reports stay in the Exports section permanently.
- Export the transaction report that contains “ERP Items” if you need the additional columns that support the GL matches.
Repeat for each account
- Repeat steps above for each accounting extract. You can set only one account active at a time, and you can run only one Cash Match at a time on one active general ledger.
Notes
- A reimport does not consume more VPUs. The system consumes VPUs only at the initial upload.
- A “Completed with Error” result or a file error with no results usually indicates a problem with the uploaded cash journal file or with the account assignment. Send the file to support for a review.
- A general ledger extract upload consumes VPUs. Confirm the quantity with your account manager before you upload a large extract.
