+Matching your bank statements with your accounting records can be a tedious task. You need to find the corresponding invoices, compare the amounts and partners' details with those in the bank statement. These steps can take a lot of time. Luckily, with Odoo you can very easily match your invoices or any other payment document with your bank statements.
+
+Two options of the reconciliation process exist in Odoo.
+
+1. We can directly specify the payment on the invoice
+2. We can reconcile open invoices with bank statements
+
+Configuration
+=============
+
+No special configuration is necessary to record invoices. All we need
+to do is to install the accounting app.

+
+Use cases
+=========
+
+Case 1: Payments registration
+-----------------------------
+
+We received the proof of payment of our invoice in the amount of 2100 euros issued to
+Smith & Co.
+
+We start at our issued Invoice of 2100 euros for Smith & Co. Because the
+sold product is a service we demand an immediate payment. Our accountant
+only handles bank statements at the end of week, so we have to mark
+this invoice as paid immediately in order to indicate that we can start rendering services to our
+customer.
+
+Our customer send us a payment confirmation. We can thus register a
+payment and mark the invoice as paid.
+
+.. image:: reconciliation/use02.png
+
+By clicking on **register payment,** we are telling Odoo that our
+customer has paid the Invoice. We thus have to specify the amount and the
+payment method.
+
+.. image:: reconciliation/use03.png
+
+Now we can always find the payment details in the Invoice by clicking on the
+:menuselection:`Info --> Open Payment`.
+
+.. image:: reconciliation/use04.png
+
+The invoice has been paid and **the reconciliation has been done
+automatically.**
+
+Case 2: Bank statements reconciliations
+---------------------------------------
+
+We start at our issued Invoice of 3000 euros for Smith & Co. Let's also
+assume that other Invoices are open for different customers.
+
+.. image:: reconciliation/use05.png
+
+We receive our bank statement and find that not only the invoice issued to Smith & Co has
+been paid, but the one to Buzz of 92 euros as well.
+
+**Import** or **Create** the bank statements. Please refer to the
+documents from the Bank Feeds section.
+
+.. image:: reconciliation/use06.png
+
+On the dashboard, click on **Reconcile # Items**
+
+.. image:: reconciliation/use07.png
+
+If everything was right (correct partner name, right amount) odoo will
+do the reconciliations **automatically**.
+
+.. image:: reconciliation/use08.png
+
+If some issues are found, you will need to take **manual actions**.
+
+For example, if the partner is missing from your bank statement, just
+fill it in :
+
+.. image:: reconciliation/use09.png
+
+If the payment is done with a down payment, just check if it is all
+right and validate all related payments :
