Purpose
The Deposits module serves as a journal of actual funds that have been deposited into bank accounts. It allows users to group multiple customer payments into single deposits, matching how deposits are recorded on bank statements for accurate reconciliation.
Bank Reconciliation: Deposits group received payments together to match your bank statement. When you receive multiple customer payments and deposit them at the bank as a single transaction, the Deposits module records this consolidated deposit for accurate reconciliation.
