How do I manually upload bank transactions?

Important: Usually, bank transactions should be uploaded to ExpensePlus using the file upload option, which makes it quick and easy to upload the transactions you download from your bank as .CSV, .XLS or .XLSX. To understand more about this, please read this help guide article.

If your bank doesn't offer the option to download statements as .CSV or .XLS from your online banking login (most banks do), or you don't have the facility for online banking, then you can manually upload transactions into ExpensePlus. Usually, this would only happen with a savings account, for example, that issued an annual paper statement that consists of just a handful of transactions. It is far easier and quicker to operate from a current account where online banking is in use and can provide .CSV or .XLS exports.

To upload bank transactions manually

1. Within the Bank Reconciliation screen, click the Upload Transactions button as you usually would for uploading bank statement files,

2. In the popup that appears, select the Upload Transactions Manually option,

3. Then add the transactions you wish to upload. Use the + button to add additional lines as required

Note: Each line showing must contain a 'Date', 'Description', and a 'Paid In' OR ' Paid Out' amount (not both).

At the end of the process, the system will ask you to confirm your new balance for the account, based on the transactions you've uploaded, in the normal way.
