There may be some transactions which do not clear the same day hence balance does not agree. For instance:

 

- amount to be withdrawn from bank but could not be done due to bank timings same day. logically entry of same is recorded immediately & bank is not debited as withdrawal was not done same day.

- Charges levied by the bank in the bank statement not booked in the books the same day as statements may not get updated real time in system / Accounts books.
