Note: The selection of transactions for bulk categorization will impact only those transactions selected and visible on the screen.
If your filter results in 50 or less, you can adjust the transactions per page to 50 on the lower left portion of the screen in order to view more and select all targeted transactions to recategorize.
If your filter results in more than 50 transactions, you will need to conduct the recategorization step (below) multiple times to update all transactions.
2. Select and update the specific transactions to be recategorized.
- Transactions can be selected individually or by selecting the first checkbox to Select All.
- Review and confirm that the selected transactions are correct.
- When the targeted transactions have been selected, Select the account you want to assign them to and then click the green Update Selected button to update the account for the selected transactions.
Your transactions have now been updated!
Note: The transactions updated can be viewed in the Audit Trail. The Audit Trail can be accessed by clicking Reports in the top menu and then clicking Audit Trail in the menu on the lower left part of the screen under Reporting Tools.
Only available on the FINSYNC Accounting plan.
