Frequently Asked Questions

What types of transactions can I edit?

All transaction types can be edited — including connected (Plaid), QuickBooks imports, CSV uploads, and manual entries.

Can I delete or reverse transactions?
  • Manual or CSV-imported transactions: Can be fully deleted if entered by mistake.

  • Connected (Plaid), QuickBooks, or Digits Pay transactions: Can’t be deleted, but can be reversed to maintain your audit trail.

How does Digits identify similar transactions?

Digits looks for:

  • The same starting category

  • The same opposite-side (paired) category

  • The same credit/debit direction

  • Transactions after the most recent closed period

Need to fix or repeat an entry?

Use Copy to duplicate a transaction or Reverse to create an offsetting entry. This is especially useful for corrections, refunds, or reclassifications.
