matched transactions still showing as unallocated

[MaryHa]

Recently set up (end of Jan) bank feeds thinking it will save me time...what a joke! Transactions have been allocated automatically to the correct invoice but when I go into the bank transactions screen they show as unallocated. When I try and search for the invoice to allocate them to of course I cannot find it because that payment has been allocated to that invoice!

I have tried going in - via opening another myob screen- deleting the matched transactions and then allocating it in the bank transaction screen. It shows up as successfully matched then when I refresh the page the transaction is unallocated and the invoice can longer be found as the payment has been matched to it.

How can we rectify this problem...what is going on?

Hi @MaryHa,

Thanks for your post.

My apologies for the late response. I understand your frustration with the bank transactions showing as unallocated even after being matched to the correct invoices. You should be able to match those transactions by expanding that bank transaction and changing the filter by field to All Transactions. However, I can suggest a few steps you could try:

• Unmatch and Reallocate: Sometimes, the system might not update the status of the transactions immediately. You could try unmatching the transactions and then reallocating them again to see if the status updates.
• Check for Duplicate Transactions: Ensure that the transactions are not duplicated in the system. If a transaction is duplicated, it might show as unallocated even after being matched.
• Refresh the system: Try refreshing the system or logging out and logging back in. Sometimes, the system might need a refresh to update the status of the transactions.

Hi thanks for the response. I did unmatch and then try and rematch the transactions and it did not solve the problem.

I called the call centre who also had no idea what the issue was. It was referred to an expert who then emailed me that the transactions had been downloaded twice when I set up bank feeds. They removed the duplicates which solved the issue.
