How to manually tag transactions

Tags can be assigned to transactions when creating or editing them on the Transactions page.

From the Transactions table

  1. Locate the Tags column and hover the mouse cursor over the cell for the relevant transaction row to see an "Add" button appear

  2. Click on "Add" and a drop-down menu will appear with all available tags

  3. Locate the tag by scrolling through the menu, or search by typing in the search bar

  4. Click on a tag to add it to the selection (you can add more than one)

  5. To confirm, click on "Done", or anywhere outside of the dropdown box.

All added tags will then be listed in the relevant cell under the Tags column:

From the 'Transaction Details' panel

Additional tags are assigned to transactions via the 'Transaction Details' panel:

  1. Locate the transaction and click the arrow on the far right of the row to open the 'Transaction Details' panel

  2. In the 'Transaction Tag(s)' section, click the empty field to search or add new tags

  3. If you have existing tags, they will appear in the drop-down menu. Alternatively, type a new tag name and the option to add the tag will appear.

  4. Once you are done making changes, click on "Save Changes"

From the Bulk-Edit menu

If you are looking to add the same tag(s) to multiple listings in bulk, you can use the Bulk-Edit tool:

  1. Select all relevant transactions using the checkboxes in the far-left column

  2. On the right side of the screen, click on the 'Bulk-Edit' button

  3. From the Bulk Edit menu, select "Add tags" and choose the tag(s) that you wish to assign

  4. Click on "Save changes" to confirm

How to auto-tag transactions with Rules

A tag rule can be set up to automatically assign tags to transactions that match any specified conditions.

Tag rules can only be used to add tags to transactions, and this action is cumulative. A rule cannot be used to replace or remove existing tags.

For example, if you have a tag to track a kitchen renovation in your home, you can create a rule that will automatically assign the “Kitchen Renovation” tag to any transactions associated with your contractor, by using the “matches payee name” condition. This way, whenever you make a payment to the contractor, the transaction will automatically be tagged.

How to create a tag rule

All rules are created via the Rules page:

  1. Open the Rules page

  2. Click on "Add a new rule"

  3. In the 'Create transaction rule' panel, you can now add your "If.." conditions and "Then.." actions. The option "Add tags" is found in the actions drop-down menu:

  1. You may also choose to enable certain rule properties under the "Finally.." section. A common one to enable is the "Run rule on transaction updates" property:

  1. To finalize, save the new rule by clicking on "Create" at the bottom and the rule will then start running on any new transactions. If you wish to create the rule and also apply it to any already existing transactions, click on "Create & Apply" instead.

From the ‘Transaction Details’ panel

If you already have tags assigned transactions, you can remove them via the ‘Transaction Details’ panel:

  2. All assigned tags will display under the 'Transaction Tag(s)' section

  3. Click the small "x" icon next to any tag that you wish to remove

  4. To confirm the changes, click on "Save Changes" at the bottom

From the Bulk-Edit menu

If you are looking to remove all tags from multiple listings in bulk, you can use the Bulk-Edit tool:

  1. Select all relevant transactions using the checkboxes in the far-left column

  2. On the right side of the screen, click on the 'Bulk-Edit' button

  3. From the Bulk Edit menu, select "Remove all tags"

  4. Click on "Save changes" to confirm
