Overview of Banking Transaction Fields

The following describes the fields available on Banking transactions within your bank accounts in FINSYNC.

All Transactions in FINSYNC have the following fields:  

• Synced Icon: The presence of the sync icon indicates that a transaction was synced from your bank account. A transaction entered manually or from another action will not have this indicator. If you are viewing a synced transaction, you will see this icon on the left of the Check Date column. 
• Description Field: 
  • Synced transaction - the Description will be an exact copy of the description listed on the transaction in your bank account. 
  • Manually added transaction - The Description field will default to blank. You can add your own description and saved to the transaction for reference. 
  • System generated transaction - These would be transactions that are generated based on certain actions - such as an invoice being paid through FINSYNC. In these instances you will see the Customer Name appear in the Description field. 
• Check Date:  This is the date of the transaction.
• Cleared:  This is the date the transaction cleared your bank.
• Reference: While any information can be entered here, most commonly check numbers are entered here. 
• Account: For manually added or synced transactions - select an Account (category) from your Chart of Accounts (COA) for tracking and reporting purposes. 
• Attachment: You are able to add an attachment, such as a scanned receipt to a payment transaction.
• Associate: If using FINSYNC's Payroll or Projects modules, you have the option of tying the transaction to an "Associate." An expense claim paid outside of FINSYNC would be an example. 
• Customer: For manually added or synced transactions, you have the option of tying that deposit transaction to a specific Customer. 
  • If this transaction was created through FINSYNC Invoicing, the Customer will be automatically selected. 
• Vendor: For manually added or synced transactions, you have the option of tying that payment transaction to a specific Vendor. 
  • If this transaction was created through FINSYNC Bill Pay, the Vendor will be automatically selected. 
• Department & Location: These fields are known as Attributes in FINSYNC. Tying transactions to Attributes allows USERS to have more granular reporting. 
  
  
• Notes: You are able to add any information you want to associate with the transaction.
