General Information
With a custom matching rule, you could simply create custom logic that the Bank Reconciliation Suite App will apply on a certain reoccurring bank statement transaction lines. With this logic, you can predefine values like department, class, and location. The custom matching rules can even be extended with custom fields and segments.

Enable feature
To use the custom matching rule feature you must first enable this feature by navigating to Setup > Company > General Preferences > Custom Preferences > ERP fast forward Bank Reconciliation. In this configuration section check the checkbox labeled “USE CUSTOM MATCHING RULES”
...
Basic Setup
To use custom matching, the feature must be enabled under Setup->Company->General Preferences->Custom Preferences->ERP fast forward Bank Reconciliation.
Additionally custom matching rules need to be set up under Setup > Bank Reconciliation Setup > Custom Matching Rules.
To create a new Custom Matching Rule:
Give the rule a name (just for your own reference)
In case there might be multiple rules matching a particular transaction, give the rule a priority. The rule with priority closest to zero will have preference over the others. Decimal numbers are allowed (for example 0.5)
In the field 'Apply To', select one or multiple bank accounts that this rule applies to. Leave blank to apply to all bank accounts.
Set the criteria and fields to set.
The user may for example set a matching rule for Counterparty, to automatically recognize a payment coming from a certain customer. Or when the description contains 'Bank Fees', book the amount to a certain GL account.
For each bank statement line all the rules are validated.
If more then one rule applies to a line, all rules are executed.
Custom matching overrides the automatic matching.
