Bank Rec Automation

Save Time, Money, and Effort by Enhancing Your Bank Reconciliation Processes

Bank reconciliations are often seen as one of the most time-consuming and labor-intensive tasks. However, with the power of Robotic Process Automation (RPA), this process can be transformed into a seamless and efficient operation.

Why Should I Automate Bank Reconciliations?

Our clients often tell us that, when performed manually, bank reconciliations are among their most laborious and time-consuming tasks. Completing a reconciliation involves pulling data from their accounting software and statements for multiple bank accounts, transferring it into Excel, and then normalizing, sorting, and filtering it. After that, clients must gather ending balances, manually open a reconciliation for each account, and reconcile each transaction. Some clients also manually save copies of each bank statement to file storage. This process may need to be repeated hundreds of times in large organizations.

This adds up to an enormous amount of staff time. Clients tell us they spend up to 200 hours—occasionally even more—on monthly reconciliations. Reconciliation delivery times can sometimes be measured in weeks, delaying other business activities and obscuring the organization’s true cash position.

FAQs

Q.

What is bank reconciliation automation?

A.

Bank reconciliation automation uses software, such as Robotic Process Automation (RPA), to systematically match financial transactions between a company's internal records and its bank statements. Instead of requiring teams to manually compare each line item, the technology automates the high-volume, repetitive work, flagging only the exceptions that require human review and significantly increasing efficiency and accuracy in the financial process.

Q.

What are the primary business outcomes of automating bank reconciliations?

A.

The primary business outcomes are significantly improved operational efficiency and greater financial accuracy. By automating high-volume, repetitive tasks, real estate accounting teams can reduce reconciliation time by up to 80-90% and minimize the human errors that lead to costly rework. This allows for a faster financial close, gives leaders real-time visibility into their cash position, and frees up skilled teams for higher-value strategic work.

Q.

Can automation handle complex reconciliations across multiple properties or bank accounts?

A.

Yes, automation is particularly effective for handling complex reconciliations across large real estate portfolios. Automation solutions can be scaled to manage high volumes of transactions from hundreds of different bank accounts and entities simultaneously. The technology is designed to apply complex, rule-based matching logic consistently, ensuring that reconciliations are performed with speed and accuracy that is difficult to achieve manually.

Q.

How does this automation integrate with existing real estate ERP systems like Yardi or MRI?

A.

Bank reconciliation automation is designed to work seamlessly with existing real estate ERP systems like Yardi and MRI. RPA bots interact with these platforms just as a human user would, by logging in, navigating screens, extracting data, and even marking transactions as reconciled via query. This ensures data flows smoothly between systems without requiring deep, custom API development, making implementation more efficient.

Q.

How can a consulting firm help my firm implement a bank rec automation solution?

A.

An experienced consulting firm can ensure your bank rec automation solution is aligned with your specific operational needs and business goals. REdirect Consulting combines deep expertise in real estate accounting with technical proficiency in automation to design and deploy a tailored workflow.
