The overview in **Reconciliation BS** lists all the balance accounts that have transactions recorded on them up to and including the period that you are currently working with.

Amounts that are available for drill-down are underlined and will change their colour to blue when you hover over them in the overview. Click on an amount available for drill-down to open a dialogue named **Account analysis**, which displays all the journal entries attached to that specific account. In **Account analysis**, the opening balance for the selected account and period is shown above the journal entry list, while the closing balance for the selected account and period is displayed at the bottom of the list. The journal entry list contains entry date and number, along with the current change, the closing balance after each journal entry and a transaction text. From within **Account analysis**, it is possible to select a different account in the account selector in the top left. You can also adjust the period displayed in the period selector in the top right. Click on the arrow next to a journal entry in the list to expand it and display a more detailed view of that particular entry. This view contains the debit and credit accounts, the booked amounts and the transaction text. ### View attachments in the account analysis To view an attachment to a journal entry in the account analysis, click on the paper clip icon in the **Attachments** column.

When you mark a check result as done, the icon changes its appearance and becomes grey with a green check mark in the lower right corner. : You only need to mark a check result as done once, which means that if you mark a check result for an account in the reconciliation BS as done, the same check check result will also be marked as done in **Transaction analysis**. : If a check result no longer is up to date due to a subsequent change, it will lose its status as done and the icon changes its appearance to indicate that the result needs to be updated. : Read more in [Auto checks](/periodandyear/help/transaction-analysis/auto-checks).

Reconciliation plan /periodandyear/help/taxation/reconciliation-bs/overview/reconciliation-plan page 2024-09-30T16:52:08+02:00 # Reconciliation plan When a client is connected to a reconciliation template, you will be able to filter the balance in the **Balance reconciliation** view according to what the frequency of the template is set up with and other properties. The reconciliation plan can easily be turned off to display accounts that are defined outside the reconciliation plan. When the reconciliation plan is turned off, the balance reconciliation will display all accounts with a balance. Completion and/or Quality Assurance of Accounts can be done using the two columns on the far right of the balance reconciliation window. The same functionality will apply when a reconciliation plan is deactivated for the period. If an account is completed/quality-assured outside the reconciliation plan and then the reconciliation plan is activated, those accounts will appear in the reconciliation plan along with the accounts defined in the reconciliation template.

Changing the reconciliation plan on a client

For users without admin access, it is possible to change the reconciliation template on the client. This is done under Settings and Company Information. Changing the template will affect the current open period and the subsequent start of new periods.

> [!NOTE] > If you wish to change the template for a reopened period, the change will only apply to the reopened period if the following period is paused. Read more about [Templates for reconciliation plan.](/periodandyear/help/administration/templates-for-reconciliation)
