What is Reconciliation?

It is a process of checking the availability of the transactions that are routed through
different entities to complete the transactions

In an electronic financial transaction processing environment, transactions get logged at


various entities such as ATM/POS(channels), Switch (router),and Host(Core Banking
System) from different time zones .

The differences in the cut-over timings between host/switch and interchanges may not
allow for complete reconciliation on a business day's transactions.

In simple terms, Its a matching process b/w the entities for the transaction availability.
When ever any transaction happens, it will be routed thru different
entities(ATM,Switch,Interchange,Host..etc) and in case if your are using some other bank
ATM then other bank gives their money to you and will claim it from your Bank, from your
account.

Bank will match the transaction logs for all the entitles and arrive at a conclusion that
whether they need to pay other bank or not.

If the transactions are less then bank will do it manually, but for the past 10 years the
volume of transactions are increased abnormally, hence its a tedious job for banks to
match transaction manually.

Why is there a need for Reconciliation?

There are Millions of transactions happening on ATM/POS/Internet/Mobile channels daily

Searching manually is also prone to human errors

Hence there is a need to implement reconciliation for quick/Proactive resolution of Transaction


Disputes

All input sources extraction & reconciliation processes can be scheduled at night time, there
by saving the processing time, reports ready for the user in the morning to act on the
unmatched cases

Saves analysis time by identifying the reason for mismatch & listing the transactions causing
difference

Proactively identifying the excess cash to be refunded to customer/other Banks

Each transaction will be routed through different Entities to ensure successful transactions
Its a tedious job to verify the failed/unsuccessful/partial transactions from the millions of
transactions without using an application & searching through Millions of transactions
manually to identify the fate of transactions may not be practically feasible
It may cost more number of resources
It may be take more time
There is an abnormal increase of Transactions with the new trends in the internet
Banking/Mobile banking and Ecommerce transactions.
