How to Reconcile your Voyage Control Account with the Voyage Transactions set at a given Date
All voyages need to be closed as at the date that needs to be Reconciled.
- Check for any open voyages prior to that date by printing the report from the Voyage ledger.
- Click on the top left menu arrow next to the plus button, then click on Voyage List.
- Select the 'As at Date' option to specify till what date you would like to Reconcile.
- Make sure all the voyages on the report are marked as Closed. If they are not closed, you will need to close them.
- Once you have made sure that all the Voyages till that date are closed, you will need to filter out the Closed Voyage transactions from the grid. Click on the Filter icon, Select 'State' and input 'N' in the search box.
- After you filter out the closed voyages, print the 'Voyage Transaction List' report. The date range on the report will need to be set to the day after you need to reconcile.
- The total on the report will match your Trial balance report when printed using the same date.
