You use this program to reconcile Cash Book deposits and withdrawals to a bank statement using an import file supplied by the bank (the import file is essentially a list of transactions that appear on your bank statement).
You typically use this program when you have a large number of transactions to reconcile. The alternative would be to reconcile entries manually using the Cash Book Deposits & Withdrawals program.
