NetCash Go-Live Process
Overview
As part of the initial setup, a user must setup the Go-Live for applicable bank accounts.
Step By Step Process:
Here is a training video that walks through the NetCash Go-Live process
- Navigate to NetCash > Setup > Go Live
- Confirm that all applicable bank accounts are presented
- If additional bank accounts are needed, follow the instructions in the Manual Bank Connection Setup article or Automatic Bank Connection Setup article
- Select the name of the account that is ready to go-live
- On the details screen, enter the following:
- Cutover Date: the date the user will begin reconciliations for that account in NetCash. No reconciliation will happen prior to this date.
- Initial Balance: the balance in the account according to the bank as of the Cutover Date
- GL Account: the GL account of this bank account
- Rounding GL Account: if a GL and bank transaction are matched but have an amount difference, that difference will be booked to this account
- Offset GL Account: account that will be hit when an offset transaction is created or if an auto-create rule has been set up
- Additionally, individuals can enter segments in the segments subtab, add approvers under the reconciliation subtab, and set up segment controls under the validations subtab
- Once all the relevant information has been entered, select the red X in the top right corner to return to the Go-Live screen
- Next, pull in the Cutover Date GL Balance by selecting the refresh button:
- If there are no differences, then the user is ready to start reconciling the bank data from the cutover date forward!
- If there are differences, then cutover items are required prior to starting reconciliations
Step by Step Cutover Item Creation
- If there are differences between the bank account's initial balance and the GL balance at the cutover date, the transactions creating the difference need to be identified.
- To create cutover items, select the carrot under the Cutover Item column:
- The Cutover Item screen will automatically filter for the period prior to the cutover date and show transactions in that period that could be accounting for the difference
- If the difference is caused by the items identified by the system then you can select them from the list beneath
- Once you have selected the applicable items, select Submit
- The system will then create the journal entry to move the balance into the cutover period so that it can be matched, see an example of this journal entry below:
- Additionally, you will be able to see this item under the "Created Items" tab in the Cutover Items record:
- On the Go-Live screen, the Cutover items will now be listed and the difference reduced by those Cutover items
- Once you have selected the applicable items, select Submit
- Alternatively, there may be a need to create the transactions for items that cannot be identified in the system or the amount may need to be written off
- Once all cutover items have been created and the differences accounted for, the user is officially ready to start the bank reconciliations from the cutover date forward!
