# Supplier Reconciliation
{{variable.GTX Bold}} enables users to compare and reconcile supplier statements with their recorded transactions, using the Supplier Statement Reconciliation module.
The Supplier Statement Reconciliation module also enables users to:
* [Record notes](/gtx/docs/supplier-statement-reconcilliation#reconciliation-notes) for general reconciliations as well as individual transactions
* [Add attachments](/gtx/docs/supplier-statement-reconcilliation#statement-attachments) electronic statements and other documents as attachments
* [Search and filter](/gtx/docs/supplier-statement-reconcilliation#searching-transactions) transactions
* [Allocate and Approve](/gtx/docs/supplier-statement-reconcilliation#approved-payment-amounts) full or partial payments for individual transactions
Once [finalised](/gtx/docs/supplier-statement-reconcilliation#finalising-reconciliations), the statement can be **recorded as paid** from [within the Reconciliation module](/gtx/docs/supplier-statement-reconcilliation#recording-payments) itself, or by using the [Payments](/gtx/docs/supplier-statement-reconcilliation#payment-entry) module as usual.
If enabled, reconciled statements for multiple suppliers can also be added to [Bulk Supplier Payments](/gtx/docs/supplier-statement-reconcilliation#bulk-supplier-payments) and recorded simultaneously.
To enable Supplier Statement Reconciliation, {{variable.SupportTeam}}.
Once enabled, the Supplier Statement Reconciliation module can be accessed by selecting **Main > Data Entry > Supplier Statement Reconciliation**.
The module will open, showing a list of **suppliers** and their statement details.
## Reconciling Supplier Statements
#### Main > Data Entry > Supplier Statement Reconciliation
**Double-click** on a supplier to open the worksheet screen, which can be used to reconcile their statement.
:::(Info) (Note)
If the worksheet contains entries for a previous (finalised) reconciliation, click on the **New Reconciliation** button at the top of the module window.
:::
In the section at the top, enter:
* **Statement Number**
* **Latest Due Date**
* **Salesperson**
* **Statement Balances**
To begin the reconciliation:
* Click on the **Start** button at the bottom-left.
::: (Warning) (Tip)
The supplier's contact information, purchase dates and account balances can be shown or hidden by clicking on the **{{glossary.Maximise/Minimise Details}}** button in the upper-right corner of the screen.
:::
The **Unreconciled Transactions** lists below will update, showing the supplier's outstanding transactions, up to the selected due date.
**Compare** the entries on the supplier's statement to those listed in the Unreconciled Transactions:
* Check-off matching transactions by ticking the **Approve** checkboxes to their left.
* Selected transactions will move to the **Reconciled Transactions** list on the right.
* **Note:** Further transaction details can be viewed by double clicking on them, or by clicking on the **{{glossary.Details}}** button at the top of the Unreconciled Transactions list.
The **Reconciliation Total** section at the bottom-right will be updated accordingly.
:::(Info) (Note)
Whether checked transactions are transferred to the Reconciled Transactions list immediately or need to be moved manually can be controlled using the **Move Transactions Immediately** checkbox at the top of the Unreconciled Transactions list. This can be useful when comparing it to the list on a supplier's statement.
If the checkbox is not ticked, approved transactions can be moved over at the end, by clicking on the **Blue Arrow** buttons that appear between the lists (shown above).
:::
:::(Warning) (Tips)
* All of the unreconciled transactions can be checked-off at once, by clicking on the **{{glossary.Select All}}** button at the top of the Unreconciled Transactions list.
* All of the reconciled transactions can also be unchecked at once by clicking on the **{{glossary.Unselect All}}** button at the top of the Reconciled Transactions list.
* Transactions can also be filtered by various criteria, such dates and transaction type, by clicking on the **{{glossary.Filter}}** button at the top of the Unreconciled Transactions List.
:::
### Adding Transactions
If the supplier's statement includes a transaction that is missing from the list of Unreconciled Transactions in GTX, then it needs to be added manually, as either a **supplier invoice**, **credit note**, or **journal entry** (using the relevant module).
The transaction will then be added to the Unreconciled Transactions list, and can be checked-off as usual.
:::(Warning) (Tip)
If the supplier reconciliation worksheet is already open and you don't see the transaction, click on the **{{glossary.Refresh}}** button at the top to refresh the list.
:::
### Previous Payments
If there are transactions on the statement that have already been recorded as paid, these will not appear in the Unreconciled List and may affect the reconciliation total.
Previous payments can be added to the reconciliation by click on the **Edit Already Paid** button, in the Reconciliation Total section at the bottom-right of the module window.
A pop-up window will open, showing a list of previously recorded **Payments**.
In the **Payments** pop-up:
* **Tick the checkboxes** for any payments made toward the current statement
* Checked-off payments will move to the **Payments Made** list on the right
* **To edit a payment amount:** select it in the Payments Made list and click on the **{{glossary.Edit}}** button at the top.
* **Verify** that the selected payments should be included in the statement total
* Click **OK** (bottom-right)
The reconciliation total will be updated accordingly.
## Searching Transactions
Transactions can be searched for by **reference number**, **date**, or **amount**, using the Search fields at the bottom of the Unreconciled and Reconciled Transactions lists.
### Transaction Filters
The Unreconciled transactions lists can also be filtered, using fields like **Date**, **Amount**, **Balance**, **Reference** and **Transaction Type**, by clicking on the **{{glossary.Filter}}** button at the top.
Use the pop-up that opens to **select and apply the desired filter options**.
To **remove** a filter:
* **Re-open** the filter window (filter icon)
* click on the **Clear** button (bottom-right)
* click **Ok**.
### Approved Payment Amounts
The Supplier Reconciliation module enables you to edit approved payment amounts for individual transactions.
This can be useful when disputing a charge, or in other situations where you want to withhold a payment.
To edit approved payment amounts:
* Select the transaction in the **Reconciled Transactions** list
* Click on the **{{glossary.Edit}} Approved Amount** button at the top
In the pop-up that opens:
* Enter the **New Approved Amount**
* Click **Save**
The new amount will be updated in the **Approved** column on the right.
