How do I inspect skipped records and fix the issues that caused them to be ignored?

Last updated on Mar 17, 2026

Short Answer: Open the Skipped tab, click a skipped row to view the issue in the Skipped modal (e.g., 'Issue detected: Missing date'), then fix the source file and re-run reconciliation.

PreRequisites

  1. You have access to the uploaded bank or books files and can edit or re-upload them.

  2. The reconciliation shows skipped records (a Skipped pill is visible).

Steps

  1. Open the reconciliation report and click the Skipped tab.
    You will see sections like 'Skipped – Bank' and 'Skipped – Books' with the note 'Records ignored due to missing or invalid data'.

  2. Click a skipped row in the table to open the skipped-record details modal.
    The modal shows the transaction details and an 'Issue detected' message (e.g., 'Missing date').

  3. Note the exact issue detected, such as:
    Missing date
    Invalid date format
    Missing amount
    Mandatory column missing

  4. Open your original source file (bank statement or books file) and fix the issue in that row.
    Examples:
    • Add a missing date
    • Correct the date format
    • Fill in the amount
    • Fix missing or invalid values

  5. Re-upload the file or re-run reconciliation.
    The corrected records will now be processed instead of skipped.

Troubleshooting

  1. Row shows 'Issue detected: Missing date'.

    Likely Cause:

    • The date cell is empty for that row in the source file.

    Action:

    • Add a valid date in the source file and re-run reconciliation.

  2. Rows show 'Invalid date format' or similar errors.

    Likely Cause:

    • The date value does not match the expected format.

    Action:

    • Correct the date format (e.g., YYYY-MM-DD) in the source file and re-run reconciliation.

  3. Row shows missing or invalid amount.

    Likely Cause:

    • The amount column is empty or contains non-numeric values.

    Action:

    • Ensure the amount column contains valid numeric values and re-run reconciliation.

Note: The Skipped section clearly indicates 'Records ignored due to missing or invalid data', helping you quickly identify and fix issues before re-running reconciliation.
