Account Reconciliation

Account reconciliation is the process of comparing internal financial records with external statements, such as bank or vendor records, to ensure accuracy and completeness. It helps identify discrepancies, missing entries, or errors. Regular reconciliation strengthens financial control, supports audit readiness, and ensures that reported balances reflect the true financial position of the business.
