Higher Ed – Intercampus Matching Report

What is an Intercampus Matching Report? Intercampus Matching Reports are considered month end closing tools  and are used by accountants to automate the reconciliation of eliminations of financial transactions when campuses lend, borrow, buy or sell to each other. Some of the main functionality in this type of matching report is that it automatically matches monthly intercampus transactions. For each "due to" and "due from" account pair, the report shows a total with a green color if there is a complete match and a red color if there is a difference.
