Bank matching

Every payment should explain itself.

Dokus links each bank movement to the document behind it. What resolves is settled. What doesn't stays visible.

Live matching

Your bank tells you what moved.It doesn't tell you what it meant.

The movement. The document. One record.

Transactions from your bank statements are checked against the invoices, credit notes, and receipts already in the record.

A line in the bank statement becomes a fact in the record.

Three outcomes

Certain when it can be.Explicit when it can't.

Four signals establish a match: amount, date, reference, counterparty. When they agree, the movement settles. And when they don't agree, Dokus does not pretend they do.

Matched

The evidence agrees. Settled automatically, with the source attached.

Possible match

Signals overlap. Dokus shows the candidates — you decide.

Unexplained

No document yet. It stays visible until it has one.

So at any moment you know what is settled, what needs your call, and what is still unexplained.

Bank sync over PSD2 — KBC, BNP Paribas Fortis, ING and Belfius, plus most other Belgian banks. Matches where every signal agrees lock automatically; the rest wait in a quick review.

What it unlocks

Once the movement is understood, your position can be trusted.

Matching looks like housekeeping. It is the step that makes the rest believable: every movement is either settled against evidence or visibly open — nothing sits inside your totals unexplained.

That is why Dokus can show where you stand and mean it. The position is not a report you assemble later; it updates as movements resolve.

The explanation travels with the number.

Source-linked

Every match points back to the bank line and the document that made it.

Auditable

Which signals agreed, and when, is on record for every match.

Export-ready

Settled entries land in your accountant's workflow with their sources attached.

Every figure arrives with the reason it is that figure.

What is automatic bank matching?

Bank matching is the process of connecting payments to the invoices or bills they belong to. Dokus connects via PSD2 (the EU open-banking standard) to your Belgian bank, reads transactions, and matches them against documents in your workspace. What the evidence supports is confirmed; what it does not is flagged with the reason.

Money moved.You already know why.

Not pieced together at the end of the month — known the moment it happened.
