Bank Clearance Issue

Hy,

I have performed a payment entry against invoice and some amount is deducted in form of Bank Charges, Bank Clearance does not fetch entry to clear date. Thus BRS is not being tally/performed. I am using V15.



any update about this?

Hy update pls.

is there any bug or am I doing some mistake?

Hi dear @Jeel could you help to fixit?


Here You Can Check … the Getting Payment entries

Your workflow is a bit different than mine. I’ve never used Bank Clearance (thought that was just for changing the dates, but I could definitely be wrong about that).

When reconciling Bank Transactions and Payments, I’ve always used the Bank Reconciliation Tool. Does that give you better results?

Hi @peterg

Bank Clearance is used to update the clearance date for bank transactions, while the Bank Reconciliation Tool is more efficient for reconciling bank transactions with payments. If you’re already using the Bank Reconciliation Tool, it should give better results for matching transactions and payments accurately.

@Smit-Bhaliya Kindly perform this scenario. (where some amount is deducted in form of bank charges or Exchange gain/loss entry is performed)

When using bank reconcilation tool, it can create bank entries when matching existing transactions or creating new. It seem sometimes this updates the clearance_date in Bank Clearance and sometimes it does not.

Does anyone know the ryme or reason when it does vs when it does not.

It seems to me, when Bank Clearance is not complete, the balance shown in Bank Reconcilation is not accurate.

The clearance date is set once a voucher is matched/reconciled completely - that is - there’s no amount left to reconcile.

A payment entry worth $1000 could be reconciled against two bank transactions of $300 and $700 each. If only the first bank transaction is linked, the payment entry isn’t completely cleared and hence the clearance date is not set. Are you reconciling transactions partially and hence the clearance date is not set?

This happens with a 1:1 relation of payment entry to bank transaction. Sometimes when matching a bank transaction in Bank Reconciliation, it populates the clearance_date in Bank Clearance doctype and sometimes it does not. These are invoice payments that are paid in full with a single payment entry.

I will have to pay closer attention to when or why. I was hoping someone else could confirm the behavior.

Bank Clearance pulls the “clearance_date” from the Payment Entry doctype. The clearance date should be set when a payment entry is reconciled with a bank transaction. Can you check the reference date/posting date in payment entry and the transaction date in bank transaction? If the bank transaction date is before the payment entry date, the clearance date might not be set.
