Every transaction should have a match. Unmatched entries are errors, omissions, or timing differences that need resolution.<\/p>\n<h2>Connecting Your Bank<\/h2>\n<p>Two methods: <strong>Bank feeds<\/strong> (automatic via Yodlee for ICICI, HDFC, SBI, Axis, Kotak, and others) or <strong>Statement import<\/strong> (upload CSV\/OFX manually).<\/p>\n<h2>The Reconciliation Process<\/h2>\n<p>Go to <strong>Banking &gt; Reconcile<\/strong>. Zoho Books shows bank vs book balance side by side and auto-matches transactions by amount, date, and reference. For each entry: Match (confirm), Create (new entry), or Exclude (irrelevant).<\/p>\n\n<figure style=\"margin:36px 0;text-align:center;line-height:0;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/aaxonix.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/inline_zoho-books-bank-reconciliation-india_2.jpg\" alt=\"Matching bank transactions with book entries\" style=\"width:100%;max-width:820px;height:auto;border-radius:10px;box-shadow:0 4px 20px rgba(10,22,40,.13);\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<h2>Automatic Matching Rules<\/h2>\n<p>Set rules for recurring transactions: &#8220;NEFT-VENDOR-ABC&#8221; auto-matches to payments to that vendor. &#8220;RAZORPAY SETTLEMENT&#8221; auto-creates a sales receipt.
