Screen BS419S02 (with screenshots)

To display this screen:
Click the Step 5-Transactions button in screen BS419S01
You must work your way through steps 1 to 5 in BS419S01 to reach that point.

About this screen
This is referred to as the staging screen.
When this screen is displayed, Bank Genie has decoded the transactions in your QIF file and has arranged the transactions in groups.
The results are presented in a list, by group.
Referring to this Screenshot:-

  • Opening balance record(s) are shown grouped at the top of the list
  • Cleared transactions are shown in the next group
  • The Uncleared transactions group is shown at the end of the list

Bank Genie allows only one opening balance. This opening balance value is used in the Account profile (See the program My Bank Accounts-BS403)
 
You can now view and if necessary adjust and/or fix any records as described below

What you can do in this screen

Importing the first account
When importing the first account choose whether to have the transactions split month by month and reconciled or whether to leave them unsplit and reconcile later.

About Cleared and UnCleared transactions

  • Cleared transactions can be processed into Reconciled Statements
    e.g. statements 1 to 150
  • Uncleared transactions are added to the last statement when processed
    e.g. Statement No 151
  • Using the example statement numbers above ( a scenario AFTER processing the import):
    Statements 1 to 150:-
    a) You can edit most data (including Categories) but  you cannot change the transaction amount (unless you unReconcile the statement).
    b) You cannot delete.
    c) You need to un-reconcile the statements if you need to do a) or b) above

    Statement 151:-
    a) You can edit anything
    b) You can delete anything
