Understand Bank sync queued

Know what a queued sync confirms and when to check transaction results.

Updated 2026-11-11

Bank sync queued confirms that Institution accepted a request to sync the connection. Transaction results update after the sync finishes, so the queue notice should not be read as a completed import.

Use the connection’s progress and status messages to follow the request. The page can later report that sync finished and transaction status is up to date. Its Last synced time is another useful completion check.

While the request is pending

  • Keep the saved account selection stable unless you need to correct it. Changing the account list while checking counts can make comparisons confusing.
  • Avoid repeatedly pressing Sync now. If a sync is already running, the page will report that state.
  • Note any attention message that appears. A bank sign-in problem needs reconnection rather than another identical queue request.

After completion, inspect the specific account and missing date range. A successful sync can return no new eligible transactions when there is nothing new available for the selected accounts.

If you leave the page before completion, return to the same company and connection to inspect its current status. Use the recorded connection state, not the earlier queue notice, to decide whether more action is needed.
