Pitch: what problem are you trying to solve?

One feature I liked in YNAB was the ability to approve or reject transactions that were imported via bank sync. I liked that I could acknowledge that I’ve seen and reviewed a transaction and that the category is correct.

My workflow in Actual is to just add a tag #flag to new transactions so that I can quickly come back to them later for further review. But this is error prone, sometimes I forget to add the tag.

Describe your ideal solution to this problem

It would be nice if there was an “approve” mechanism for transactions imported by SimpleFIN in Actual so that I can have peace of mind that whatever transactions get imported won’t sneak in with an incorrect category.
