Cash Matching Settings

Some aspects of Accounting are controlled by custom settings. From Setup, click Develop | Custom Settings. You must be signed in with system administrator permissions to perform these tasks. See the Salesforce Help for information on how to maintain custom settings.

The Cash Matching Settings custom setting enables you to customize the Cash Matching page, and set thresholds used by the background matching process. These fields also allow you to override the default values used in the Accounts Receivable Write-Off process.

Cash Matching Settings
Field When selected:
Allow Different Matching GLAs

If selected, different GLAs can be used during cash matching. If deselected, all matched cash entry and transaction lines must have the same GLA. This setting is deselected by default.

 

Note that using different GLAs might not be suitable for all the matches that include values for currency write off. For more information, see About Cash Matching.

Asynch Matching Threshold

Deprecated - updates introduced in the Spring 2019 release mean that this setting is now redundant. From Spring 2019 when a match is committed it will always run asynchronously.
Asynch Undo Match Threshold Specify the maximum number of transactions to process using the online method. Over this threshold the process switches to an "asynchronous" one. An asynchronous process is one that executes independently, allowing the main program to continue processing. If the undo match process runs asynchronously, you are informed of its completion by an email message.

The default number of transactions used as the threshold is 35. If your accounting transactions do not include discounts you can increase this threshold to allow more transactions to run in online mode.
Background Matching Batch Size

The maximum number of sales invoice transaction line items that the background matching process can handle in a single batch. The default is 50. The maximum permitted is 200.

Note:
If you have enabled the Matching from Cash Entry feature or are using the Background Matching Lightning feature,, this setting is no longer used. It is superseded by the Matching Process Scope Size custom setting in Background Matching Settings.
Background Matching Lines Threshold The maximum number of matching lines that the background matching process can match with a single matching reference. (A matching line is a single transaction line of type Account on either a sales invoice or cash entry.) The maximum permitted is 70.
Background Matching References Threshold The maximum number of matching references that the background matching process can create in a single batch. The maximum permitted is 20.
Edit Write-Off Values Indicates that you want to show Write-off values on the Cash Matching page. Also used in the Accounts Receivable Write-Off process, to allow the default Write-Off Limit to be overridden.
Enable Matching to Intercompany Cash

Indicates that you can match intercompany cash entries on the Cash Matching page. This setting is deselected by default. When enabled:

 

  • You can select an intercompany account for the Company in the Select Filters window. This retrieves the cash entries of the selected account and the selected intercompany account.
  • You need to add an Account field to the cash entries side of the Cash Matching page to list single company accounts and intercompany accounts.

For more information, see Matching Cash.
Show Analysis Section by Default Indicates that you want to show the Analysis section on the Cash Matching header by default.
Show Auxiliary GLA Values Indicates that you want to show the Auxiliary GLA column in the Cash Entries and Transactions grids on the Extended Cash Matching page.
Show Discount Values Indicates that you want to show Discount values on the Cash Matching page.
Show Remaining Values Indicates that you want to show Remaining values on the Cash Matching page.
Show Write-off Values Indicates that you want to show Write-off values on the Cash Matching page.
