Overview

CORE allows you to define rules that automatically set account and payee information for the imported transactions from your bank or financial institution via Cloud Feeds. You can set the rules for importing and processing the transactions based on conditions, thus automating the process of importing feeds into CORE. The Manage Rules screen allows you to create and manage rules and assign priority on them.

The rules can be tied to one or more bank or credit card accounts. Hence, they are accessible from the Cloud Feeds screen. These rules can be item-based or account-based. Click to watch this video on managing rules for cloud feeds in CORE.
