Intercompany matching is done by the Prepare Eliminations process. Transactions are matched in the specified currency. The matching process takes the results of the translation and compares the sum of the Match and With accounts. If the mismatched difference is greater than the specified tolerance, the mismatch amount is posted as specified in the Post lists.

Matching is done in any currency into which the Intercompany Eliminations account data has been translated. The matching process takes the results of the translation and compares the two accounts. Unmatched amounts left from this process are posted to the lines specified in the post remainder and post third-party accounts.

You can specify as many Match and With accounts as needed but they must be from the same type of lines. For example, all P&L or all Balance Sheet accounts.

If the journal is balanced, the Match and With accounts must have at least one account with a natural sign that is different than the other accounts.
