Automatic posting rules

By setting the rules of the statement, the information of the statement lines can be automatically filled. This option is most often used to describe bank transactions that are recorded as a financial transaction, such as service fees, interest, loan payments, etc.

Adding a new rule

It is easiest to start creating a new rule from the statement document. The corresponding rule code can be seen on all lines to which a rule has been applied, and the rule can be opened by clicking on it. All lines in the statement that have not been applied to any known rule have an ADD link. Example: one row already has a rule applied (EU2_TT) and other rows that do not match any known rule have the link ADD.

Clicking on this link opens a window for creating a new rule, the conditions of which are pre-filled with information from the line of the corresponding statement.

A code and a name must be assigned to the rule to be created. When filling in the conditions block must be remember that the rule applies if ALL the conditions are met. In the example above, the rule applies to transactions where

  1. money left the bank account (direction Out)
  2. the amount was exactly 0.16 Euros (currency and amount range are specified)
  3. the payment explanation was Other service charge

In order for the rule to apply more universally, the conditions can be reduced or a text fragment search can be used instead of an exact text match. For example, in such conditions

the rule applies in all cases when money is debited from the account with a transaction of type TT_1 and whose description includes the text service fee

After fulfilling the conditions, the desired result of the application of the rule must be determined. Example:

The statement line to which the given rule applies is assigned

  1. type Transaction
  2. account 85003
  3. object GENERAL
  4. project 1101
  5. an attempt is made to find a customer in the customer register whose register number matches the counterparty`s register number on the statement line.
