• Reconciled transactions create a

minimum of 3 entries: original

distribution, reversal distribution,

and the reconciled distribution.

• Unreconciled transactions are

forced to reconcile at month end.

• Net effect is that the voucher

washes out the pcard credit

balance on 3768xxx 58999 and

reduces cash as well.

After PeopleSoft

• Daily Bank File Transmission

• File Load Process to PeopleSoft

• Daily Reconciliation

• Daily Voucher creation
