Bank reconciliation
There are a number of things bugging me regarding the essential task of reconciling bank accounts. The Bank Reconciliation Reports are easy enough to create, but after that it all goes wrong. Nobody seems to have thought about what happens to them after the 'Publish' button is pressed! Here's what I think - and please please please vote for this or nothing will change.
1) I would like to see bank reconciliation reports having their own dedicated space. They are currently hidden away in Reports>Published, mixed up with all the other published reports. Please create a new Bank Reconciliation Reports section.
2) If a new Bank Reconciliation Reports tab/section is created, let us group or file them by bank account. Many clients have multiple bank and credit card accounts. Also, I would like to be able to reorder and rename Bank Rec reports. Currently if there's a typo when I name the file I have to delete it and produce another brand new bank rec. I want all my bank recs to be in date order, so I can quickly see where I'm up to but I can't currently re-order them.
3) I would like to have the ability to attach bank statements to the Bank Rec reports - this is basic - why can't we do this?
Essentially, what I'm saying is that we need a proper files & folder system for bank recs. The published reports are treated as an afterthought, but they are so important, we need to be able to find them and manage them in a far more efficient way than we can at the moment.
