Transfer between accounts which both have bank feeds

[Rob_Phillips]

I have two bank accounts set up with Bank Feeds, and I a transaction where I moved money from one account to the other. Both Bank Feeds correctly imported the transaction.

When I tag the transaction on BankAccount1, a new, duplicate transaction is created on BankAccount2, putting my balance out.

How should I properly handle this scenario?

Duplicates being generated - Bank Feed

Hi, I’ve got bank feeds from Lloyds Bank on the main current account as well as some holding accounts. I’m having trouble because when I tag a transaction in the main current account, it seems to be being duplicated in the holding account. Below, I tagged money out from the main current account (this was via a bank tagging rule which I have set to confirm, not process automatically) [image] and it appeared twice in the holding account.

In the end, I stopped the bank feed from feeding into all the other accounts apart from the main current account.

Hope this helps.

On my account I’m asked if it’s an existing transaction when tagging it. Do you not get this?

Transfer between Bank - Different dates

OK we have now updated the bank transfer handling to allow for match suggestions that extend to +/- 5 days from the transaction date. This should help with those situations where the debit and credit dates differ from one account to the other (e.g. PayPal, Amex and other payment processors). If you select a bank transfer match that is not on the same date, the interim balance will now be posted to a balance sheet code called “Balance Sheet Suspense” (2997). This keeps those interim movements on…

Use a holding bank account that the two bank feed accounts can use to transfer the two transactions will allow for the two bank feeds without creating duplication…

Credit Card - paying from Bank Account duplicate entries

I have created an additional in Banking “Credit Card Accounts” for the Bank Current Account and the Credit Card accounts transfer these bank feeds “Credit Card (Suspense)”. By having an additional account “Credit Card (Suspense)” the bank feed works without any duplications as they are held in the suspense account. Generally this account should be showing with a zero balance, except for odd occasions when a payment is credited to the credit card the next day.
