Keep the books current

Transaction Coding Support

Keep bank and card activity moving through approved account and dimension rules, with unfamiliar items held in a visible exception queue.

Bank-feed records pass through approved coding rules, while exceptions move to a separate review queue.

Bank feed → coding rules → prepared queue, with exceptions held for review.
The operating problem

Uncategorized activity and inconsistent coding accumulate when recurring merchants, dimensions, and exception rules live only in one reviewer’s memory.

A reviewable handoff

Inputs become prepared outputs.

Named records and tangible deliverables make the role easier to scope, train, review, and improve.

Inputs from your team

  • Bank and card feeds
  • Chart of accounts and coding guide
  • Vendor, customer, and dimension lists

Outputs for review

  • Prepared coding queue
  • Missing-document list
  • Exception and reclassification log

Decisions stay accountable

Controls your team retains

Capacity should not blur authority. These decisions and approvals stay with the named client owner or qualified adviser.

  • The client approves new accounting treatment
  • Sensitive or unusual items remain unposted
  • A named reviewer approves the first batch and rule changes
