Cash reconciliation

There are two different types of reconciliation that need to be done:
Custody accounts in Bricknode Broker in relation to the custody account at the bank.
Custody accounts in Bricknode Broker in relation to other accounts in Bricknode Broker such as counterparty accounts and customer accounts.
There are different ways to do reconciliation in Bricknode Broker, and we will only show an example of how it can be done. You could also use our add-on reconciliation manager.

In column U (Account.AccountType.Label) we can filter on accounts and column AC (Amount) shows how much cash we have on a specific balance date.
Select only "Custody Accounts" and view Amount.
Do the opposite and select the other account types (like counterparty, holding, and ISK accounts) and sum up the amount. Now we can compare the amounts and if they are the same, the reconciliation is correct.
