Importing Receipts from PowerCampus

Hello,

My company has been using GP for years, but failed to ever reconcile the bank statements through it. I'm attempting to implement this change, but have a question:

I'm understanding that all deposits must go through the cash receipts/deposits to hit the Bank Reconciliation. Right now, they are entered as Journal Entries. All adjustments are entered as JEs. That change is fine. However, our software for our students' accounts is PowerCampus, which exports the receipts to GP. When this happens, it comes over as a JE, meaning it won't apply to the Bank Reconciliation. Is there a way to have it import as a Cash Receipt instead of a Journal Entry?

Thanks,

Dani

So that means the import is built in to PowerCampus. That would mean you will have to understand where the data is coming from and fashion an import with an external tool. All possible, just not as easy as we first hoped.

Kind regards,

Leslie

Thank you. I spoke with someone from IT, she said PowerCampus imports directly. We don't use another software.

Hi,

I agree with Matt. You'll need to get to provide additional information to the system, but importing it as a cash receipt should not be a problem. Does the JE that you bring over from PowerCampus match your bank statement? If it does, you might want to import an increase adjustment rather than a cash receipt - you wouldn't have to go through the 'deposit' step. Know that you should never, ever have to make a journal entry to cash (unless you're fixing a problem). Always use a Bank Transaction/Deposit. There isn't any transaction that would require using a JE. In fact, I would open my Account Maintenance screen, pull up the Cash account and uncheck the Allow Account Entry checkbox.

Kind regards,

Leslie

You may want to take a look at Nolan's Advanced Bank Rec.

What are you using to do the actual import? Integration Manager? SmartConnect? Something else? I'd imagine it would just be changing it out to import in to the Bank Rec module instead of the GL. You many need to adjust a few things but it should be doable.
