Bulk Entry is a time-saving tool that enables you to simultaneously add multiple transactions on a single page. Income or Expense transactions can be added in bulk under any category or in any currency. You can add transactions manually or copy them from any source of your choice. The most common sources of data are Excel and CSV files.

Step 1

To begin using this tool, go to the Transactions page and select the Bulk Entry button.

Step 2

At the top, you can select between Expense and Income tabs.

Step 3

Underneath, you will see a bulk transaction editor with the following options:

  • Payment/Deposit account: Choose the appropriate bank/credit card/cash account where the transactions occurred

  • Currency: Select the currency that applies to each transaction

  • Taxes: Sales taxes can either be included or separate from the total. Taxes must already be defined in the system

Step 4

Once you have selected each option, you can begin adding each transaction manually or by copying and pasting information.

Step 5

When the bulk entry list is complete and no information is missing, click on the Post button to save them.

Step 6

The posted transactions will appear on the main Transactions page.
