Reconciliation Basics

Accessing the Reconciliation Module

 

 

 

Reconciliation Module Menu Options

You’ll want to begin by getting familiar with the menu options on the main screen of the Reconciliation module.  Once you’ve created your complete reconciliation, you will return to this transaction screen to perform the transmissions associated with the Recon transaction.  Completing your Reconciliation transaction may require that you review some other portions of this manual, in order to become familiar with other modules of SmartBorder (ex. Billing).
