How do I add a bank account manually?

ForLandlordsProperty managers

Who can do this

Landlord; Organization users with Edit Transactions and Configure Accounting Settings.

Where to find it

Settings → Accounting → Add a bank account → Add manually (or Accounting → ⋮ → Link Financial Account).

Steps

  1. In Add a bank account manually ("Use the accounting features without connecting a bank."), enter Account name.
  2. Choose Account classification and Ownership scope, and optionally the last 4 digits.
  3. For an operating account, optionally enter Opening balance (optional) and As of date.
  4. Click Add account.

What happens next

No toast; the account is listed. An opening balance posts a balanced opening entry to the ledger on that date.

Troubleshooting

"Enter an account name to add it."; "Enter an opening balance of $0.00 or more."; "Enter the opening balance date."; "The opening balance date can't be in the future."

Limits

Manual accounts don't sync; import their activity by CSV or record it by hand.
