Creating processing rules

Cash transaction processing rules are used to help with categorizing and analyzing the bank statements. A client can set up rules based on certain defined criteria and the system will categorize the incoming bank statements according to those defined rules.

Note:

Processing Rules are run in Priority order. The order of the rules can be changed by entering a new priority value in the New Priority column. Click Save to save the new priority value.
