Reconciling bank statements and converting data to Excel or other accounting systems is a key feature of DocuClipper. However, you may encounter issues where the statement isn’t reconciling due to conversion errors. This article will guide you on how to troubleshoot and resolve these issues.
Understanding Reconciliation Issues #
When DocuClipper finishes processing the statements, it adds up all the transactions and compares the totals with the beginning and end balances on the statement. If everything matches, DocuClipper displays a blue “Reconciled” box. Otherwise, it shows a red “Not Reconciled” box, indicating there may be missing or incorrect transactions.

Reasons why your Job is not Reconciled

- The statement is of low quality. When the statement is too blurry, warped, and has writings sometimes DocuClipper can’t extract the data properly.
- The statement is missing the headers (date, description, amount, etc.). DocuClipper needs the headers (at least on the first page) for data extraction to work.
