To "reconcile" means (more or less) "to come to an agreement"

You and the bank come to "agree" on the state of your account at some point in 
time..... You "reconcile" your version against their statement.  If (for 
example) they have charged you twice for something, then you tell them and 
hopefully get a resolution you are happy with.

naturally, you want to agree on both funds in and funds out of the account!

HTH,
Maf.
