What do you mean they are not in balance?
The steps are;
Reconcile the bank statement with the cash book balance by cross referencing all the entries in both the bank statement and the ledger account
Enter any transactions which originate in the bank account and are not posted in the ledger
Identify outstanding transactions not yet entered by the bank
Prepare a bank reconciliation statement
Adding outstanding deposits to the bank balance and deducting outstanding payments
Identify and correct errors
When all else fails use the Indian method
To unidentified difference
