Automated Bank Reconciliation
This handy little website finds matching instances between your records (vouchers, transactions etc.) to that of your banks, and spits out a new excel (.xlsx) file, with all the matching records removed out of the box. you can use this to automate the horrid process of bank reconciliation which has to happed at the end of almost every month. this site aaves a lot of Manual Tick-Off & Saves a Lot of Time!
In order to make this project work you need 3 things:
* Python3

- an .XLSX file (with account book records)
How-To (Easy-Way):
- make sure your files are ready as described below in the hard-way section
- go to:
https://road-future-softball.glitch.me/and follow the instructions!
How-to (Harder-Way):

download this entire repo
-
download nodeJs from https://nodejs.org/en/download

go to the folder root and enter the following commands:

public/samplesfolder

technical details. shoot me an email. I will be more than happy to provide you with direct .exe file
