Where the reconciliation hours actually go

It is rarely the matching itself. It is the four cases a formula grid was never built for.

Two files, thousands of rows

Bank statement on one side, ledger on the other. VLOOKUP breaks on the first duplicate invoice number and you are back to manual scanning.

Amounts that almost match

₹82,000 in your book, ₹82,050 in the portal. A difference of ₹50 costs the same review time as a difference of ₹50,000.

One payment, many invoices

A single ₹1,00,000 receipt clears four invoices. A row-by-row formula can never make that match.

Duplicates and near-duplicates

The same entry posted twice, once with a trailing space, once with a different voucher format. Neither VLOOKUP nor your eye catches it reliably.

Four reconciliations, one engine

The fields and tolerances change. The way it matches does not.

Bank reconciliation

Bank statement against cash/bank ledger — match on date, voucher, instrument number and amount, with a date window for clearing delays.

Vendor reconciliation

Vendor ledger against your payables — match on invoice number and party name, tolerating spelling differences and part payments.

GST reconciliation

GSTR-2B or GSTR-1 against your purchase or sales register — match on GSTIN, invoice number and tax amounts, field by field.

TDS reconciliation

Form 26AS or TRACES against your TDS ledger — match on deductee, section, amount and date tolerance.

Import → Map → Rules → Run → Save Workflow → Review

Set it up once. Save the workflow. Next time, reconcile in one click.

01

Import both files

Load the two sides — bank statement and ledger, GSTR-2B and purchase register, 26AS and TDS ledger. .xlsx, .xls and .csv.

02

Map the columns

Auto-map detects the common fields — invoice, GSTIN, date, amount, party. Rename a mapping by hand when a client uses a different header.

03

Set the rule per field

Tell the engine how each field should match: exact, numeric tolerance, date window, fuzzy threshold or last-N-digits. Mark a field required or optional.

04

Run the stages

Each stage tries the relationship modes in order — 1:1, then 1:N, N:1, N:N — across the six match passes. Whatever clears moves on; the rest falls to the next stage.

05

Save the workflow

Save the whole setup as a workflow — the column mappings, the rule and tolerance per field, the relationship modes and the side labels. Next time it loads exactly as you left it.

06

Review and export

Open the results by status — matched, suggested, partial, unmatched, duplicates, amount differences — with the reason recorded per row, then export the working.

Next time
Select Saved WorkflowUpload 2 FilesRun WorkflowReview

Pick the saved workflow and drop in the two files. Your mappings, rules and tolerances load with it — there is nothing to map and no rule to set again.

The six match passes

  1. 1All required fields match exactly
  2. 2Required exact + optional exact
  3. 3Required exact + optional fuzzy
  4. 4Key fields exact, numeric within tolerance
  5. 5Key fields exact, date within tolerance
  6. 6All fields fuzzy match

Each pass runs in order. A row that fails an earlier pass is retried by the next one, so a ₹50 amount difference or a three-day clearing gap does not become a false exception.

How you set each field

FieldMatch rule
Invoice NoExact · strips prefixes and leading zeros
GSTINExact · upper-cased and normalised
AmountTolerance (₹ value you set)
Txn DateDate tolerance (± days)
Party NameFuzzy (similarity threshold you set)
Voucher NoLast-N-digits match (count from the right)

Mark a field required and a match cannot happen without it. Mark it optional and it only raises or lowers the confidence score.

The result is a working paper, not a yes/no

Every record gets a status, a confidence score and a written reason. Totals are split so you can see how much is still open, not just how many rows.

Amount Difference

Same invoice on both sides, different amount — reported separately instead of as missing/extra.

What the matching engine does

Every setting below exists in the app.

6 match passes, in priority order

A voucher that fails one test is retried against the next instead of being dumped into unmatched.

1:1, 1:N, N:1 and N:N matching

Group matching clears one payment against several invoices, and many invoices against one receipt.

Confidence score + written reason

Every result carries a 0–100 confidence and a plain-English reason, so a reviewer knows why it matched.

Amount difference analysis

Same invoice, different amount on the two sides — reported as its own result instead of missing and extra.

Duplicate detection

Flags records repeated within the same file, with what they duplicate.

Debit / credit separation

When debit and credit columns are mapped, unmatched and matched totals are split by side.

Per-field tolerances

₹ tolerance on amounts, day tolerance on dates, similarity threshold on names — set independently.

Stage log

See what each stage processed, how many it matched and how long it took.

Microsoft Excel is required. Piloteq Automate works with your installed copy of Excel — no add-ins and no macros to set up — and runs offline on your PC.
