  • Filter by category, account, or tag to find anything fast.
  • Edit details — rename, re-date, note, split, or exclude.
  • Add manual transactions and recover deleted ones from Trash.

What are Transactions?

The Transactions page is where all your financial activity lives. It shows every inflow and outflow across your connected and manual accounts — including purchases, transfers, deposits, and savings contributions. Each transaction is automatically synced from your bank connections (via Plaid) or added manually, and can be categorized based on your Categories and Tags. This helps you understand where your money is going and how it aligns with your budgets. Transactions are grouped by day, with a running Net total for each day so you can see at a glance whether a given day was net positive or negative. From the Transactions page, you can:
  • View all your income, expenses, and savings in one place.
  • Filter by account, category, or tag.
  • Add or edit details like descriptions, notes, or categories.
  • Split, merge, or delete transactions when needed.
Treasury keeps Transactions in sync automatically — new activity flows in from your connected accounts and feeds straight into your Budgets and Net Worth. The more consistently your transactions are categorized, the more accurate those views become.

Categorize a Transaction

You can categorize transactions in two ways — directly from the transaction list or through the edit menu.
If a transaction already has a category assigned (or says “Uncategorized”), you can click directly on the category label to update it. A dropdown menu will appear where you can search or select the correct category.For example, if you previously marked your “shopping” category incorrectly, you can click the shopping label and reassign it to a different category.
Categories are required before you can build budgets. If your list is full of Uncategorized items, set up your categories first — see Categories — or let Treasury do it for you with Turbo Review and auto-categorization.

Edit a Transaction

To edit a transaction, click the three dots next to a transaction and select Edit. This opens the transaction details window, where you can make a variety of changes.

Available Actions

At the top of the edit screen, you’ll see several icons. Each one lets you quickly adjust different details of the transaction:
IconActionDescription
SplitSplit/divide a transaction (for example, splitting a transaction 50/50 with a friend).
Edit NameRename the transaction for clarity — helpful if the bank provided name is unclear.
Edit DateChange the transaction date if it was recorded incorrectly.
Add NoteAdd or edit a note or description for extra context.
Exclude / IncludeToggle whether the transaction is counted in reports or budgets. Useful for removing one-off or reimbursement items.
DeleteDeletes the transaction.
You can also:
  • Add or remove tags to transactions by clicking on +Tags.
  • Recategorize transactions using keyboard shortcuts for quick updates.
After making your changes, click Confirm to save.
Use Exclude for reimbursements, one-off anomalies, or internal transfers you don’t want skewing your budgets — the transaction stays on your ledger for the record but is left out of budget and report totals.

Deleting Transactions

You can delete a transaction by clicking the three dots next to it and selecting Delete. A confirmation window will appear — click Delete again to permanently remove the transaction from your main Transactions page. If you accidentally delete a transaction, you can recover it from the Trash:
  1. Click the trash can icon in the top right corner of the Transactions page.
  2. You’ll be redirected to the Trash view, where all deleted transactions appear.
  3. Click the three dots next to a transaction to:
    • Restore – return the transaction to your Transactions page.
    • Delete Forever – permanently remove the transaction from Treasury.

Delete Forever is permanent. Choosing it prompts a confirmation screen — once confirmed, the transaction is gone for good and cannot be undone. If a transaction came from a connected account, deleting it here removes it from Treasury but does not affect your bank.

Filtering Transactions

The Filter button on the Transactions page lets you quickly narrow down your view to find specific transactions. You can filter your transactions by:
  • Categories – show only transactions in certain categories (e.g., Food, Rent, Travel).
  • Accounts – display transactions linked to specific accounts.
  • Tags – view transactions associated with a particular tag (e.g., Lapland 2025).
Once you make a selection, the page will automatically update to show only the matching transactions. To remove filters and return to the full transaction list, click Reset.

Adding a Manual Transaction

Manual transactions are useful for recording purchases made with cash or for tracking activity that isn’t automatically captured by your synced bank accounts. To add a manual transaction:
  1. Click Add Transaction in the top right corner of the Transactions page.
  2. Fill in the details:
    • Name – what the transaction is for (e.g., “Coffee at Local Café”).
    • Account – choose the account to associate the transaction with.
    • Date – select when the transaction occurred.
    • Category – assign the appropriate category (e.g., Food, Travel, Miscellaneous).
    • Tag (optional) – apply a tag if you’d like to group this transaction (e.g., Vacation 2025).
    • Note (optional) – add any extra details or context.
  3. Click Submit, and the transaction will be added to your Transactions page.

Manual transactions behave just like synced transactions — they can be categorized, edited, filtered, and included in budgets or reports.

On the go

Everything on the Transactions page is available on mobile. Transactions are grouped by day as cards, with search and filter at the top and your daily Net on the right — so you can review and recategorize spending wherever you are.

Tips & best practices

  • Categorize little and often. A few minutes a week keeps your budgets and reports accurate — or turn on auto-categorization and use Turbo Review to clear the backlog fast.
  • Tag by project, not just category. Tags like Lapland 2025 let you slice spending across categories for trips, events, or shared expenses, and can drive a dedicated budget.
  • Exclude noise. Reimbursements and internal transfers can distort your numbers — exclude them so your budgets reflect real spending.
  • Rename unclear merchants. Cryptic bank descriptors become searchable and reportable once you give them a clear name.

FAQ

Treasury auto-categorizes most activity, but flags anything it isn’t sure about. Clear those in seconds with Turbo Review, or click the category label on the transaction to set it.
Open the Trash (trash-can icon, top right) and choose Restore. Transactions stay in the trash until you delete them forever.
It keeps the transaction on your ledger for the record but leaves it out of budget and report totals — ideal for reimbursements, internal transfers, and one-off anomalies.
