A) Parse Rule Sets: Cash Management supports parse rule sets to transform data during the bank
statement import process. Parse rules are used to move data from one field to another. The parse rule
set is associated to a bank account in the bank account setup.
Each parse rule within a parse rule set consists of the following fields:
1) Tolerance Rules: it enables you to specify date and amount tolerances that prevent or warn
you when reconciliation would be a breach of a defined tolerance.
Two types: 1) Date tolerance : are primarily used for checks that may be issued on one day and
not clear the bank until days or weeks later.
2) Amount tolerance: are most often used when reconciling foreign currency
transactions where there may be differences due to rounding or fluctuations in the conversion
rate. They can also be used if a bank includes a processing fee in the bank statement line amount.

2) Reconciliation matching rules: help you match bank statement lines and system transactions to
minimize the need for manual intervention. After you assign the rule sets to the bank account, the
Auto reconciliation process picks up the reconciliation matching rules to achieve a higher match
rate.
