FAQ

Should I use import or sync?

Use the source that matches your current setup. If your bank connection is active, prefer sync. Use import when you need to load data manually.

Limitations

Import quality depends on source data quality

Missing fields, unexpected formats, or partial exports can affect review and reconciliation later.

Troubleshooting

Imported rows do not look right after upload.

Re-check the source file or source system export, then retry with the corrected data.
