β Potential fraud or unauthorized transactions
π Regular bank reconciliation helps businesses maintain accurate financial records and detect issues early before they become bigger problems.
Best practice?
β Reconcile monthly
β Investigate differences immediately
β Keep supporting documents properly filed
Accurate records start with proper reconciliation.
