Hi aman1988,

Essentially, there is no big difference. What you should understand is that that the main difference between manual & electronic bank statement is in the way how the bank statement record is created in the system: in case of manual bank statement, you use the transaction FF67 to create bank statement header & line items, whereas in case of electronic bank statement, you use various upload programs (e.g. FF_5) to upload bank statements from the source files. But eventually, once you have bank statement, you can do post-processing via transactions like FEBAN / FEB_BSPROC. In post-processing you manually finish the posting of the operations e.g. by selecting the OIs for clearing etc. But it works the same for electronic & manual bank statement. The difference is that with manual bank statement, you'll probably have higher percentage of items for post-processing.

In terms of the settings, manual bank statement re-uses most of the settings from electronic bank statement that are defined in OT83 e.g. account symbols, posting rules etc. But there is additional settings in OT52 to map operations in manual statement against posting rules from OT83.
