This ensures you remember to report any action that occurred at the bank and flags any duplicate entries. The technique of reconciling bank accounts assists you in keeping track of your cash flow so that you are aware of how money is received and spent. You will have no accurate method of understanding how your firm is performing if you do not reconcile your accounts.
