Are the aliases exact string matches? My scenario is I have 'American Express' depositing money from credit card transaction into my bank account. The memo includes the date the transaction was processed so it is unique. Once a month they charge me their fees with a different (and also unique to that transaction) memo field.
example: 05/04/09 AMERICAN EXPRESS, SETTLEMENT 090502, $143.60 05/04/09 AMERICAN EXPRESS, SETTLEMENT 090504, $745.49 05/01/09 AMERICAN EXPRESS, COLLECTION 090501, -$4.95 05/01/09 AMERICAN EXPRESS, SETTLEMENT 090501, $1,424.90 Dylan On May 29, 12:48 pm, Kevin Hoctor <[email protected]> wrote: > On May 29, 2009, at 1:43 PM, DM wrote: > > > With iBank there is the notion of 'Smart Import Rules' where you can > > assign category (bucket) based on any of the fields of the transaction > > (memo, transaction type, payee) except amount and check number.
