๐Ÿ“š Categorizing multiple transactions at once (Bulk Actions)

There are two ways to categorize multiple transactions quickly in Propio, depending on how you want to work:

๐Ÿ”น Option 1: Bulk send already AI-categorized transactions

  1. Start by selecting a client.

  2. At the top left of the transactions table (next to the Date filter), click the checkbox to select all transactions on the current page.

  3. Confirm that the counter on the Save button shows the number of transactions selected.

  4. If you have reviewed and accepted the AI-suggested categories, simply click the Save button.

  5. โœ… All selected transactions will be categorized and moved to the Categorized tab.

๐Ÿ”น Option 2: Categorize manually in bulk before sending

  1. Select specific transactions by clicking their individual checkboxes, or use filters to narrow down your list (e.g., by vendor name like "Shell" to group gas station expenses).

  2. Once the filtered list appears, click the checkbox next to the Date filter to select all filtered transactions.

  3. Click the three dots (...) next to the Save button.

  4. Choose "Categorize as..." from the dropdown menu.

  5. Select the correct Chart of Accounts category.

  6. Click Set Category to apply that category to all selected transactions.

  7. Finally, click the Save button to move all categorized transactions to the ledger.

    ๐Ÿช„ Tip:
    Using filters first makes bulk categorization faster and ensures you apply the same category only to transactions that really belong together.

โœ… Result:

  • Option 1: Quick mass sending if you trust AI suggestions.

  • Option 2: Full control if you want to bulk categorize manually before sending.

๐Ÿช„ Tips:

  • If you're unsure about a transaction, you can also request a new AI suggestion instead of categorizing it manually.

  • Transactions you categorize will be sent to the client's ledger during synchronization.
