About Cash Reconciliation
The cash reconciliation process within Eagle Accounting is managed by the Cash Recon console and supporting message streams that match and reconcile cash activity from different sources. The Cash Recon console directs the reconciliation of the accumulated cash activity records from Eagle Accounting and external custodians. Breaks are identified, aged, and resolved within the context of the client workflow. You can generate reconciliation reports for viewing and distribution to downstream systems.
To access the Position Recon console:
- From the Accounting Center window, select Reconciliation in the left navigation.
- Click Cash Recon.
- Click Administrative.
- Double click Cash Recon Console.
You see the Cash Recon console.
