How to Use the Bank Book Report in ecount ERP

This article explains how to view, print, and reconcile bank book reports in ecount ERP, intended for accounting users.

📋 Overview

Bank Book (Report → Account Book → Bank Book) displays transactions for selected bank accounts from a start date to an end date. It shows opening balance, voucher details (date, number, account, type, credit/debit), and closing balance. The closing balance reflects the reconciled (consile) balance from bank statements.

🔧 Steps / How-to

1. Open the Bank Book report via Report → Account Book → Bank Book.
2. Set the date range and bank account you wish to view.
3. Use the Insert / Edit / Delete / Audit options to manage vouchers. See General Working Options for shortcut keys.
4. To print, press Ctrl+P. Choose horizontal or vertical layout. Horizontal layout provides Reconciled Bank Book, Pending Entries, Daily & Monthly summaries.
5. To reconcile entries, click the Reconcile button. If a bank date is required (configured in Bank Book setup), a separate window opens to enter the reconciliation date; otherwise the entry reconciles immediately.
6. Reconciled entries are marked with an asterisk (*) in the bank balance column. The updated balance appears in the footer strip.

💡 Tip: Reconciled entries automatically update the bank balance, helping you keep the ledger aligned with bank statements.
