Managing Accounts

The Accounts tab allows administrators to view and manage all financial accounts requiring reconciliation.

Access the Accounts Tab

To access and manage the Accounts tab:

  1. Navigate to the Administration module.

  2. Select the Accounts tab.

The Accounts tab displays by default, showing all configured accounts.

Managing Accounts

To manage accounts:

  1. Navigate to the Administration module.

    The Accounts tab is displayed by default, showing all configured accounts.

  2. Use the Search bar to locate specific accounts by entering account numbers, names, or keywords.

  3. Click the Refresh button to update the account list with the latest data.

  4. Use the account status filter to display accounts by reconciliation requirement:

    • Select All to view all accounts.

    • Select Enabled to show active accounts requiring reconciliation.

    • Select Disabled to show accounts that do not require reconciliation.

    Note: All accounts are initially imported in the "All" state. Accounts can be enabled for reconciliation when needed or disabled when reconciliation is not required, such as dormant accounts or accounts under specific thresholds. This helps streamline the reconciliation process by focusing only on active accounts.

  5. Review account information in the table:

    Column

    Description

    Legal Entity

    Name of the legal entity

    Account Number

    Unique identifier for the account

    Account Name

    Full name and description of the account

    Supporter Source

    Indicates type of reconciliation source:

    • Manual: Displays for accounts without bank statements (accrued expenses, prepaid accounts, or other GL accounts)

    • Bank Account Number: Shows the actual bank account number when configured for automatic bank reconciliation.

    By default, when you enable an account without configuring a support source, it automatically defaults to Manual type. You can modify the support source configuration at any time, even after enabling the account for reconciliation.

Note:  

  • Preparer and Reviewer can be the same person but Reviewer and Approver cannot be the same person.

  • The default assignment for all roles is "Anyone," meaning any user with appropriate permissions can perform that role.

  • If the user does not appear in the dropdown, add the user in the insightsoftware platform and refresh the Users list.

  • Enabled accounts (blue) appear in the Reconciliations module. Disabled accounts (grey) do not appear in reconciliation workflows.

License Count Management [v26.1] 

Starting from version 26.1, Free License users can create an unlimited number of reconciliation accounts but can enable a maximum of 20 accounts at a time. This limit applies to enabling accounts, not creating them.

When the enable limit is reached, the system displays: "You have reached your reconcile account limit. Upgrade your plan to add more accounts."

Note: Disabled accounts remain in the system and retain all reconciliation data. Re-enable them at any time by disabling another account.
