Handle category checks flagged by a run

Use the flagged count to find evidence questions that need review.

Updated 2026-11-11

Category checks flagged means the run found transactions needing additional review. Available suggestions remain editable, and the transaction detail shows the missing evidence or reason that needs attention.

  1. Expand the categorization request and read the flagged count.
  2. Use Show transactions without a category where offered, or inspect the relevant bank transactions.
  3. Add supported business context or change the proposed ledger account through the available review flow.

A flag is a review task

The flag can coexist with an available suggestion. It should prompt you to examine the evidence rather than assume that the transaction has no useful information or that the suggested account is automatically wrong.

Your saved choice takes precedence in the category review, while ledger posting still uses the existing accounting checks. If the appropriate account is missing, open the chart of accounts and resolve that separately. If the purpose is unclear, answer the specific clarification question when replies are available. Do not replace a meaningful review with repeated categorization requests. Finish by checking the saved choice and the record’s accounting state, because resolving a suggestion flag does not itself complete import, posting, or statement reconciliation.
