Improved Bank Statement Import

AccountEdge can import bank statements in a variety of formats for most every bank as long as you can download your statement to your computer in an OFX, OFC, QIF, QFX and other similar formats. We have added a new Bank Statement Import worksheet window making it easier and faster to add new transactions, match to existing transactions and create import rules when importing a bank statement. You can also apply transactions to your Jobs, streamlining the tracking and billing process.

The Bank Statement Import window gives you the ability to save the transactions you imported so you can come back to it later if you are interrupted. AccountEdge will retain the transaction imported but not yet updated. Using a dual register worksheet window, you’ll now be able to see the work to be done and the transactions you've already matched or added without having to import the bank statement again and again.

AccountEdge can now help with future bank statements by creating rules that are tied to a transactions memo or payee.

Having the ability to create rules for the next import will make your next reconciliation easier and faster.
