    Hi community, We're excited that enhancements to your bank reconciliation experience in Xero are in the process of being rolled out! Some may notice you can now effortlessly search and filter statement lines based on your preferred criteria, giving you ultimate control and efficiency. Plus you’ll be able to view more statement lines on your screen - up to 50 unreconciled statement lines on one page. 🚀
    Worth noting here with the interest in getting a narrower view of statement lines that need reconciling on a given or between certain dates - you’ll find with the more option to the right of Search you’ll be able to set a date range and filter down your view 😁

    If you don't quite  have the new features yet, I can assure you they are coming soon, as we ramp up the release of this to everyone over the next few weeks. I'll…

    Right now, Xero first tries to suggest a matching existing transaction by comparing the amount, then contact name, reference and due date. If no transaction exists to match to the statement line, Xero looks to see if any bank rules apply.

    However, what is the point of creating a bank rule then? Wouldn't you prefer Xero pull your created bank rules first?

    We've been fighting with Xero to implement this change, but they're refusing because their system is 'working as designed' even though their design makes no sense.

    Here is a current example as to why their system doesn't work:

    I have a transaction currently in my system that needs reconciled. However, because Xero pulls a match of amounts first, it wants to match my current transaction to an invoice. However, this invoice has ALREADY BEEN PAID. Why in the world is Xero even considering paid invoices simply because the amounts match?! You can see in the pictures that Xero is trying to match the invoice, but shouldn't be because a bank rule is already in place for these transactions.

    Please up-vote so they will make these changes!

    They need to change their order of operations to matching BANK RULES FIRST!
