Open Books › Process feeds and Select Account. For each transaction, Apply the suggestion, use Quick Add (account, tax code, contact), Match Existing Transactions to an invoice, bill or payment, or New Journal to split it. Apply Rules codes everything your bank rules cover.
Before you start
- A bank feed linked to your chart of accounts (see Connect your bank), or transactions imported from a CSV file.
1. Choose the account
Open Books › Process feeds and Select Account: bank feeds are listed as "Bank Feeds: …" and CSV imports as "CSV Import: … (N to do)". Each transaction shows its date, description and Received or Spent amount; "Pending" ones have not cleared at the bank yet.

2. Use the suggestion
Under a transaction Exacc may suggest a bank rule, a matching invoice, bill or payment, or a journal, with its Probability. Apply accepts it: Exacc posts a bank transaction, records the payment, or links the existing one.
3. Or code it yourself
Quick Add posts it to one Account with a Tax code (plus Contact, Priv %, Inline Memo, Site if you need them) when you click Save & Post. Tick several transactions to Quick Add them together.
New Journal opens a full bank transaction to split it over several accounts. New Payment records it as a customer or supplier payment. Match Existing Transactions links it to something already entered, so nothing is counted twice.
4. Clear what does not belong
Disregard removes a transaction from the list without posting it, with a reason (Duplicated transaction, Transaction processed differently in Exacc, or Other reason) and a note.
Save time with bank rules
New Bank Rule on a transaction starts a rule from it, and Exacc applies your rules straight after you save it. Apply Rules runs all your rules over every account. See Create bank rules.
Today's transactions
Feeds bring in transactions up to yesterday. Check for todays transactions asks the bank for newer ones.
