If we take a cash payment in the cheddar up app, it imports but says “Transaction handled outside of Cheddar Up”. I can understand why I can’t import the cash transaction but is there a way to hide it or otherwise address it, so it doesn’t keep coming up as a transaction available to import?
Hi Sandra,
Yes, you can hide those transactions in the import screen by clicking the “eye” symbol to the left of the import button.
Is there a way to mass import transactions into one category? For instance we run a store for a fundraiser, and within that fundraiser the purchaser can purchase multiple items from different item types. When it is time to import the transactions we have to manually go through each sale and then manually assign the category for each item purchased. This is time consuming. Is there an easier, less time consuming way to do this?
Hi Jennifer,
There are a couple of things you could consider in this situation.
First, if you make your budget category names in MoneyMinder the same as the item names in your Cheddar Up store, the budget categories will auto-full when importing. You will still import each transaction individually, but the budget category will auto-fill which can save time.
The second thing you might consider is if you don’t need to track the details of each item, but only want to track the amount you make on the fundraiser, you can decide NOT to import each transaction from your Cheddar Up Store. Instead, you can just record the deposit in your bank account when you move the money from Cheddar Up and apply the whole deposit to the fundraiser category. This way it will all be applied to the fundraising category in one deposit instead of many individual transactions.
Which option you choose will depend on how much detail you would like to capture.
