Unmatched Items Get Resolved Faster When They Leave the Reconciliation Screen
Unmatched items tend to stall reconciliations because the work needed to resolve them usually sits with someone else. In MIP®, exporting unmatched items to a spreadsheet creates a clean handoff. The list can be sent to Accounts Payable or Accounts Receivable owners with clear due dates, while clearing continues on everything else.
This approach separates review from resolution. The reconciliation keeps moving instead of waiting on answers, and exceptions are worked in parallel by the people who can actually close them. When responses come back, the remaining items are already isolated and easier to finish.
Teams that do this consistently reduce close delays because unresolved questions stop living inside the reconciliation itself. The bank rec becomes a coordination point instead of a bottleneck.
This video is for accounting teams that want reconciliations to progress even when not every question can be answered immediately. It is not intended for organizations that wait to clear until every exception is resolved by the same person.
McGovern Consulting Group provides MIP Accounting® Training and Implementation Services. We focus on workflow design because reconciliations move faster when responsibility is pushed to where action happens.
If you want fewer stalled reconciliations and a smoother close, schedule time with us to review how your team handles exceptions.
