Reconciling Transactions
Reconciliation is the process of matching bank transactions with your Latch payment and expense records.
Automatic Matching
Latch automatically attempts to match transactions based on:
- Amount — Does the transaction amount match an expected rent payment?
- Timing — Is the transaction close to a payment due date?
- Description — Does the bank description contain a tenant's name or reference?
Automatic matches are shown with a confidence indicator. High-confidence matches are highlighted.
Manual Reconciliation
For transactions that are not automatically matched:
- Go to Payments > Transactions.
- Click on an Unmatched transaction.
- Choose an action:
- Match to Payment — Select an existing unreconciled payment.
- Create Payment — Create a new payment from this transaction.
- Match to Expense — Link to an existing expense.
- Create Expense — Create a new expense from this transaction.
- Exclude — Ignore this transaction (e.g. personal spending).
Reconciliation Dashboard
The Payments section shows a reconciliation summary:
- Number of matched transactions.
- Number of unmatched transactions requiring attention.
- Total reconciled vs unreconciled amounts.
Tip: Set up categorisation rules (see next article) to automate matching for recurring transactions like mortgage payments.
