The direct bank correction review explains that an eligible unreviewed import keeps its previous values and your note in the audit history. This preserves the reason a record changed instead of leaving only the latest values without context.
- Before applying the correction, identify the old and new facts.
- Write a Review note that explains the bank evidence supporting the change.
- After confirmation, use the existing transaction’s review history and current details when answering later questions about the difference.
Retained history is useful for handoffs
Another reviewer may see a different amount than an earlier export or statement check. The previous values and correction note help distinguish a legitimate source update from an unexplained manual alteration.
A removed import is also excluded and retained through its supported review. Do not assume that retention means the old values remain the current accounting result; inspect the present transaction state. Conversely, do not delete related evidence simply because the current record now looks correct. Keep the explanation concise and factual, without unnecessary sensitive information. If the transaction requires a protected accounting correction, follow that workflow so the resulting ledger changes have their own appropriate history alongside the bank source evidence.
