Cleared transactions
Sage Accounting marks imported bank transactions as cleared in bank activity. The cleared status identifies transactions imported through a bank statement or direct bank feed. Sage Accounting also marks cleared transactions as reconciled in the reconciliation window.
CAUTION:
You can’t modify reconciled transactions after you complete a bank reconciliation.
Correct a mistake
If you chose the wrong transaction type, delete the transaction from bank activity. Remove the cleared status before you delete the transaction. Sage Accounting prevents you from deleting cleared transactions. For steps, see How to delete bank transactions
Transaction dates
The transaction date depends on how you record the transaction. When you import a bank transaction, Sage Accounting uses the bank clearance date as the transaction date. You can’t change the date during import. To use the customer payment date, record the transaction directly from banking. Then use the import to Match and mark it as cleared.
