Bank imports and transfers

The core changes suggested are

  1. When a bank import is done, Manager retains all the imported records as a bank import. This is similar to when doing a bank reconciliation, Manager doesn’t throw away the reconciliation value after it is found to match.

  2. Manager uses progressive matching (from most exact to least exact) to dynamically link bank import data to existing Manager transactions for the bank import period.

  3. Manager shows the bank import hiding all transactions which match by default. This display would mostly look the same as the existing bank import display.

  4. This display would however also show any existing Manger transaction for which a matching bank import could not be found (ie failed matches in the other direction).

  5. There should also be an option to show transactions Manager has matched so users can check the automated matching if they believe there maybe an inappropriate match.

With this in place, a bank transfer becomes just another pre existing Manager transaction. Showing in bank transfers would be nice and still possible in my opinion.
