# Match or Unmatch Transactions

:sparkles: Digits automatically matches transactions across connected sources, such as Stripe, Ramp, or your client’s bank, to merge them into a single, clean record. This prevents duplicates and keeps your books audit-ready.

Most matches happen automatically, but during reconciliation, you can manually match or unmatch transactions if something looks off.
