Flags

Flags can be used to mark and identify transactions that need additional review. By flagging transactions you'll be able to easily locate them later for review. There are two default flags in every file: "Unreviewed" and "Needs further review". Transactions that you download or import from files are flagged as "Unreviewed" Unreviewed Flag by default. Flags can be setup to be removed upon selecting a transaction or set to be removed manually. Assign specific styles and colors to flags to make them more easily identifiable in transactions and reports when using the options in the Colors preferences. Create custom flags to help easily reference specific transactions as needed. The list of flags can be found in the Lists - Flags section. Learn more about the details flags can have as well as how to create, edit, and delete flags below.

Each file will have two special flags: "Unreviewed" Unreviewed Flag and "Needs further review" Needs Further Review Flag. Learn more about these two special flags below.

Unreviewed Flag Unreviewed: Designed to help easily identify new transactions. Set by default when downloading or importing transactions. The number of transactions marked with the "Unreviewed" flag can be viewed in the in the main account list. This flag will be automatically removed from transactions when you select them by default.
