Resolve duplicate transactions in a bank feed

Steps to take if your bank feed incorrectly shows duplicate transactions in Sage Accounting.

Why do duplicate transactions show?

There are several scenarios where this can happen.

• You have a connected bank feed but you also have transactions manually imported from a bank statement
• You disconnect your bank, then reconnect it using the same transaction start date
• There's an issue with your bank feed connection

The easiest way to handle duplicate bank feed transactions is to discard them from the bank feed.

If you notice duplicate transactions that shouldn't be there, discard them from the bank feed without processing.

1. From Banking, open the relevant bank feed.
2. Select the relevant transactions you want to delete using the checkbox.
3. Select Delete selected, then confirm the deletion by selecting Yes, delete.

 NOTE: If you notice this happening regularly, Contact us to investigate further.
