Create a Categorization Rule

New rules can be created in Settings / Categorization Rules.

Rule conditions can reference fields in the transaction object itself, as well as Expected Payments and Payment Orders reconciled to that Transaction. For a primer on reconciliation, refer to Reconciliation Overview.

We currently support the condition fields below. Reach out to [email protected] if you require support for additional condition fields.

Many Expected Payments or Payment Orders

In the event of many Expected Payments or many Payment Orders reconciled to the same transaction, the condition fields for all reconciled Expected Payments or Payment Orders need to be evaluated to true for the metadata to be applied.

For example, a rule that applies the metadata tag payment category: vendor payout to ACME if the reconciled Expected Payment counterparty is ACME Co would only apply when all reconciled Expected Payments have counterparty ACME Co.
