When to add manual payments
Add manual transactions for:
Cash payments: Purchases made with physical cash
Payments from unconnected accounts: Cards or accounts not linked to Finthy
Peer-to-peer payments: Cash given to friends or family
Foreign transactions: Payments made while traveling
Adjustments: Corrections to your transaction history

Best practices for manual entries
