**Objective:**   
To efficiently match bank statement transactions in the file {{FileTag:Transactions}} with entries in a master file called {{FileTag:masterfile}} ,   

ensuring all transactions are correctly reconciled, and to identify any discrepancies that require further investigation.  

**Scope:**  
This policy applies to the reconciliation process involving bank statement transactions and a master transaction file.  

**Procedure:**  
1. **Preparation of Data Files:**  

   - Confirm that the following key fields are present and correctly labeled in both files:  

     - **Transaction ID:** Unique identifier for each transaction.  

     - **Date:** Transaction date.  

     - **Amount:** Transaction amount.  

     - **Description:** Brief description of the transaction.  

2. **Defining Matching Criteria:**  
   - Transactions will be matched based on the following fields:  

     - **Transaction ID**  

     - **Amount**  

   - Ensure exact matches for both fields to confirm a transaction as reconciled.  

3. **Comparison Process:**  
   - Open both the bank statement file and the master file in a spreadsheet program such as Microsoft Excel or Google Sheets.  

   - Use conditional formatting or formulas to highlight transactions where the Transaction ID and Amount match in both files.  

   - Manually identify and mark any discrepancies in other fields like Date or Description for transactions that have matched IDs and Amounts.  

   - Identify transactions that are present in one file but not in the other, marking these as unmatched.  

4. **Creation of Reconciliation Report:**  
   - Create a new detailed report covering all transactions as an .xlsx. Divide the spreadsheet into three sections:  

     - **Matched Transactions:** List all transactions where the Transaction ID and Amount align in both files.  

     - **Mismatched Transactions:** Document transactions with the same Transaction ID but discrepancies in other details.  

     - **Unmatched Transactions:** List all entries that do not find a match in the opposite file.  

5. If the input files provided do not match data for reconciliation and it's not useful for analysis give me the error output file in .txt do not wait for confirmation from us again.

AI Prompts - Best Practice

Here are some recommendations for creating more effective prompts to get the output you want

  1. - Include details to get more relevant answers

  2. Put working into

  3. to clearly indicate distinct parts of the input

hashtag
Write Clear Instructions - Include details to get more relevant answers

In order to get a highly relevant response, make sure that requests provide any important details or context. Otherwise you are leaving it up to the model to guess what you mean.

Better

hashtag
Put working into defining an accurate persona to adopt

The persona definition goes a long way to helping give context and suggested style to what the AI model will come up. Time spent adding extra layers to the persona is well spent time.

hashtag
Use delimiters to clearly indicate distinct parts of the input

Delimiters like triple quotation marks, section titles, etc. can help demarcate sections of text to be treated differently. Example:

Split Complex tasks into Simpler subtasks - Specify the steps required to complete the task

Just as it is good practice in software engineering to decompose a complex system into a set of modular components, the same is true of tasks submitted to a language model. Complex tasks tend to have higher error rates than simpler tasks. Furthermore, complex tasks can often be re-defined as a workflow of simpler tasks in which the outputs of earlier tasks are used to construct the inputs to later tasks. Example:

hashtag
Specify the desired length of the output

You can ask the model to produce outputs that are of a given target length. The targeted output length can be specified in terms of the count of words, sentences, paragraphs, bullet points, etc. Note however that instructing the model to generate a specific number of words does not work with high precision. The model can more reliably generate outputs with a specific number of paragraphs or bullet points. Examples:

    Objective:
    Match transactions between the expense report and credit card statement using Expense category and category.
    
    1. Open and read both the Expense Report file {{FileTag:Expense Report}} and the Credit Card Statement file {{FileTag:Credit card statement}}.
    
    2. Create a new file and call it "Travel Expenses". Now copy and paste all the data from the Expense Category column and expenses amount column in the expense report file into the new file, but only for rows that have the value travel in the expense category column.
    
    3. Now copy and paste all data for the description column and the credit card amount column from the credit card statement file into the new file, but only for rows that have the value travel in the description column.
    
    4. Now create a new column in the Travel Expenses file and call it ‘Total Travel Expenses’. Now calculate the total amount by adding the values in the expenses amount column and the credit card amount column and place the value in the first row of the travel expenses column.
    
    Do not duplicate any columns.
    
    If the input file provided does not match data for reconciliation and so is not useful for analysis, give me the error output file in .txt. 
    
    Do not wait for confirmation from us again please go ahead with Reconciliation. Do not wait for confirmation again from us - Any question you have for me should be asked in output file format that is defined in step 4.

    1- Hi, I would like you to be an expert in recommending business decisions in the leisure, particularly the hotel sector. I would like you to use this expertise to summarize and recommend investment decisions about where to build new hotels based on data that I will share with you. and i need the your recommendation in .txt file so please generate your decision in .txt file.  
    
    2 - A good place to build a new hotel is where there is a competitor brand hotel within 3 kilometres of the location of my proposed location because this indicates that there is a market for hotel rooms within out price range. However, if there are more than 3 competitor brands of hotel within 3 kilometres of the proposed location then this is an indicator that the location may not be good for us because there is too much local competition. Please note that we are only interested in considering competitor brands as competition, unbranded hotels should not be considered competition.  
    
    3 - In the case of too much competition, you should think about whether we should propose a different brand. If the hotel is in a location that you consider to be generally wealthy and a major city or leisure destination, then you should propose analysis of one of our more luxury brands, if it is an area you consider to be poorer then please propose one of our  less luxury brands.  
    
    Please use the attached file {{FileTag:Hotel Performance}} and below information in your decision making. If the input file provided do not match and is not useful for analysis, please proceed with the analysis based on the data  provided within this  initial message regarding competitor hotels and provide the output file in .txt do not wait for any confirmation.  
    
    The brand that we are proposing is Premier Inn.   
    
    Our competitor brands to Premier Inn are Marriott, Sheraton and Hilton. Please note that brands such as ‘Double Tree by Hilton’ are not competitors to the Holiday Inn brand. 
    
    Our own more luxury brands are Four seasons and One & Only Resorts. Our own more budget brands are Premier Inn and Wyndham Hotels.   
    
    The town is Northampton, UK.   
    
    The table of competitor hotels nearby is as follows.   
    
    Competitor Brand  Distance to Proposed Location  Average Room Rate  
    
    Hilton  		   	2  					85  
    
    The George               	2  					90
