When Synder<\/a> integrates the payment processor with Xero accounting it creates a Clearing bank account (a so-called Holding account) for the temporary storage of synchronized transactions (the same way as the payment processor holds the money for some time before paying it out to your bank). Auto-reconciliation feature allows to mark all the synchronized income and expense transactions in the clearing account<\/a> as \u201creconciled\u201d automatically, this will not affect your checking account reconciliation process. Learn how to reconcile your checking bank account in Xero<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Important note<\/strong>: Xero has a restriction that doesn’t allow third-party software to mark Bank Transfer transactions as \u201creconciled\u201d, which means that Synder will synchronize all payouts (settlements) with the \u201cUnreconciled\u201d status. However, you can mark them as \u201creconciled\u201d in Xero.
        Important note 2:<\/strong> If you need to \u201croll back\u201d (delete) payouts, you can’t do it from Synder. Please go ahead and remove them directly in Xero. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
