Reconcile Income Transactions

Where to find your transactions

Navigate to Sales → Bank Reconciliation → Transactions.

Here you’ll see all transactions that were imported from your bank statement CSV file.
Each row includes the date, the bank account it was imported into, description, counterpart, amount, and status.

Income vs expense (how to tell them apart)

  • Income transactions are shown in green and displayed as a positive amount.

  • Expense transactions are shown in red and displayed as a negative amount (with a minus sign).

Use filters to find what you need

Above the transactions table you’ll find filters to help you narrow things down, for example:

  • by date range / period

  • by status

  • by type (Income or Expense)
