Introduction |
This screen allows the retail user to add a new category that they can use for transaction categorization. While adding a new category the user has to specify category details (name, head, available for categorization), Budget details (Frequency, Amount, Effective from, Threshold Amount %) and Rule details (Priority, Keywords). While defining rule (from 1 to 999), 1 is of the highest priority and a maximum of 3 keywords can be defined by the retail user for a category. The rules defined will be used by the system only if auto categorization is enabled. |
