This article explains how to edit a bank transaction explanation in FreeAgent.
You’ll need level 6 access or above to your FreeAgent account to edit bank transaction explanations.
For information on how to remove a bank transaction explanation, please see this article. For information on how to delete a bank transaction, please see this article instead.
Navigate to the relevant bank transaction
Navigate to the ‘Banking’ tab at the top of the screen and select 'Bank Accounts' from the drop-down menu.
Choose the relevant bank account from the list.
You can either edit the explanation for a single bank transaction or multiple bank transactions in bulk.
How to edit an explanation for a single bank transaction
Select the name of the transaction that you’d like to edit to display its details. Make any relevant changes and select ‘Save Changes’.
How to edit multiple transaction explanations
If you need to edit multiple transactions, tick the checkboxes to the left of the relevant transactions. Next, edit the transaction explanations in the panel on the right-hand side and select ‘Explain X transactions’.
Please note that you can edit multiple ‘money in’ explanations or multiple ‘money out’ explanations at the same time, but you can’t edit a combination of the two. Instead, you'll need to edit one type of transaction first, then the other.
