Matching locked an entire bill, so once one accrual was matched to a bill, no other accrual could use it. Every reversal waited for manual approval, and new accruals suggested by Agent-JE were posted straight to the books.
Agent-JE matches accruals at the bill-line level and reverses high-confidence matches on its own. New accruals arrive as drafts in Review schedules, so you can check them before they post.
Smarter matching, automatic reversals and draft accruals
Agent-JE's accrual automation now handles the clear matches on its own and leaves the exceptions for you to review.
- Line-level bill matching. A single bill can be matched against multiple accruals, with each accrual matched to its own bill line. Lines that haven't been matched stay available for later matches.
- Improved matching accuracy. More of the right bills and bill lines are associated with the correct accruals.
- Automatic reversals for confident matches. When Agent-JE is highly confident a bill or bill line belongs to an accrual, it creates the reversal without waiting for approval. Less certain matches appear as suggestions for review.
- New accruals start as drafts. Accruals suggested by Agent-JE appear as drafts in Review schedules instead of posting directly to the books, so the amount, debit and credit accounts, and memo can be checked first.
How to use it
- In Review schedules, open each accrual draft and check the amount, category, class and memo. Click Post if it is correct, or Ignore and give a reason if the accrual shouldn't exist.
- In Actual Matching, review each bill-match suggestion. Click Approve if the match is correct, or Ignore and give a reason if it isn't.
- If an automatic reversal matched the wrong bill or bill line, open it and click Undo Reversal. The accruals return to their posted state.
- Use Match New to select the correct bill or bill line and match it to the right accruals.
Why it matters
- Less manual matching. Clear matches are reversed automatically, so review time goes to the exceptions.
- No blocked bills. One bill can clear several accruals without locking its remaining lines.
- Nothing posts unchecked. New accruals wait as drafts until they are reviewed.
- Easy to correct. Undo Reversal and Match New fix an incorrect automatic match, and the reasons given for Ignore help Agent-JE improve over time.
