## Matching Rules

Coincile uses intelligent matching rules:

* **Exact Match**: Same amount, date, and asset
* **Close Match**: Similar timing and amount (within threshold)
* **Manual Match**: User-defined matches

## Handling Discrepancies

Common discrepancies and solutions:

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Timing Differences">
    Transactions may have slight time differences between sources. Adjust matching tolerance in settings.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Fee Variations">
    Exchange fees might be recorded differently. Review and categorize fees appropriately.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Missing Transactions">
    If a transaction is missing from one source:

    * Verify it exists in the original source
    * Check sync status
    * Add manually if needed
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Duplicate Entries">
    Mark duplicates and merge them to avoid double-counting.
  </Accordion>
</AccordionGroup>

## Best Practices

<Tip>
  Reconcile regularly (weekly or monthly) to catch issues early and maintain accurate records.
</Tip>

<Warning>
  Don't ignore unmatched transactions. Investigate and resolve all discrepancies before closing your books.
</Warning>

## Audit Trail

Every reconciliation action is logged:

* Who performed the reconciliation
* When it was done
* What changes were made
* Original and matched transactions
