Bank Deposit Balance
The Bank Deposit Balance (BDB) page provides the user with a snapshot for a Bank account on a given day. This includes Open Deposits, Return Items, Adjustments, Total Bank Balance, Book Balance, and Variances between the bank and Advantage. Records are inserted into the inquiry by the Update Bank Balance system process. If making updates from a BAI file provided by the bank, then the BAI to XML system process must be run first. Also, key to updates to this inquiry are running the Check Reconciliation and Deposit Reconciliation processes before the update to this inquiry. Furthermore, updates to this inquiry are only possible for banks with a Bank Account Status of Active or Closing.
The Update Bank Deposit Balance process loads data in Bank Deposit Balance and compares the information from the bank with the information on Deposit Reconciliation (DPREC) before populating the Bank Deposit Balance (BDB) page. If a Bank is specified as Auto Reconciliation equal true on the Bank Account Reference page, the opening and closing balances are recorded from the BAI file that is processed by the BAI to XML system process. If the Bank has Auto Reconciliation set to false, the opening and closing balances are recorded from the previous day’s transactions on Deposit Reconciliation.
