I too am facing the problem of reconciling employee clearing account. For now the solution is to use the search feature.

However, there’s already an idea that would be helpful in our case:

> [@Mapping salaries & expense claim to payment](https://forum.manager.io/t/mapping-salaries-expense-claim-to-payment/24684):
>
> As we set off receivables and payables against the actual bank debit and credit, it will be good if we have option to set off employees due when paid by company. Because when there is a pending salary or salaries paid in part or paid combined with expense claim, fneed to work out the full list to find which month salary not paid or which expense claim not paid.

Also, the developer have hinted the possibility of internal “reconciliation” by means of “pairing up” once before so I don’t believe that this is something completely out of question:

> [@Ability to convert two transactions to a Inter Account Transfer](https://forum.manager.io/t/ability-to-convert-two-transactions-to-a-inter-account-transfer/31886/2):
>
> I was thinking about this what would be the best way to faciliate this. And I think the solution is to have built-in account called Inter-account transfers. This is account where you’d post transactions which could be paired up. Then once viewing transactions within this account, you could do the pairing process. This is not something that would be required as it would not change your financial statements but it would be useful to find bookkeeping errors.

So, I believe the term pairing should be used instead of reconciliation or matching. Idk if this will help, but at least it’s been proposed by the developer.

I believe this pairing process should apply by default for all clearing accounts since they should normally balance out and any unpaired transactions should stick out like a sore thumb.

I also propose that yet another class of balance sheet accounts be introduced and that is: clearing accounts.
