# Add a Manual Bank Transaction

Not every transaction comes through your bank feed. When a client pays cash, makes an offline purchase, or you need to correct a record, you can enter it manually in Propio — keeping the books complete without waiting on a sync.

**Before You Start** 

Make sure you have the bank account already set up in Propio and the transaction details on hand: merchant name, date, amount, and category.

**Steps**
