periodic reconciliation
At regular intervals (in this case, monthly) you balance the accounts ledgers against the bank statements, and you should arrive at the same figure. In accountancy, this is called reconciliation (note: NOT conciliation).
" (5) Reconciliations:
(a) A monthly reconciliation shall be made at month end of the cash balance derived from the cash receipts journal and cash disbursements journal total, the trust account checkbook balance, and the trust account bank statement balance.
(b) A periodic reconciliation shall be made at least quarter annually, within 30 days after the close of the period, reconciling cash balances to the subsidiary ledger trial balance."
Thisis just one example of a result from a Google search for "periodic reconciliation".
