Review Bank Transactions: Excluding Transactions

Learn how to exclude non-matchable bank transactions from your Review Bank Transactions queue, undo a recent exclusion, and view your full Excluded History.

Written by David S

Overview

The Exclude action in PantherAccounting Plus lets you remove bank transactions from your Review Bank Transactions queue when there's nothing in PracticePanther to match them to: examples being personal charges, transfers tracked elsewhere or transactions prior to your onboarding date.

Excluding a transaction doesn't delete it, it's simply hidden from the review queue so you can focus on the transactions that actually need your attention. You can always bring an excluded transaction back into view later.

💡 Tip: New to Review Bank Transactions? Start with Review Bank Transactions: Connecting Your Bank and Matching Payments via Plaid to connect your bank or credit card account first.

Exclude a Transaction

  1. Navigate to Accounting > Review Bank Transactions in the top menu and choose the account you want to review.

  2. Hover over (or, on a touch device, tap to select) the transaction card in the left panel that you want to remove from the queue. A small X badge appears in the top-right corner of the card.

  3. Click the X to immediately remove the transaction from your review queue.

A "Transaction excluded." confirmation toast appears for about 5 seconds with an Undo option, in case you excluded the transaction in error.

Undo a Recent Exclusion

If you need to restore a transaction you recently excluded, use the following steps:

  1. On the Review Bank Transactions page, click the new Recently Excluded button in the top-right.

  2. The dropdown shows your last 5 excluded transactions for the selected account. Each row displays the transaction name and type, the transaction date and amount, and a Restore link.

  3. Click Restore next to the transaction you'd like to add back. It is removed from the Recently Excluded list, and the transaction reappears in your Bank Transactions review queue in its original position.

View Your Full Excluded History

For a complete record of everything you've excluded on an account, open the Excluded History page.

  1. Open the Recently Excluded dropdown from the Review Bank Transactions page.

  2. Click View Excluded at the bottom of the dropdown. This takes you to Bank Transactions > Excluded History > [Account].

  • Excluded Date - the date and time you excluded the transaction.

  • Bank Transaction Date - the date the transaction posted at your bank.

  • Name - the merchant or transaction name from your bank.

  • Amount - the transaction amount.

  • Reference No. - the transaction's reference number, if available.

  • Actions - a Restore link for that row.

Use the search bar to find an excluded transaction by name, or use the Excluded Date and Amount filters to narrow the list.

Restoring a Transaction from Excluded History

  1. Go to Bank Transactions > Excluded History for the relevant account.

  2. Find the transaction you want to add back and click Restore in the Actions column.

  3. The transaction is removed from Excluded History and returned to your Bank Transactions review queue at its original transaction-date position, ready to be matched or excluded again.
