3.2 Spend Analysis – Split Transaction

This topic describes the systematic instruction to Spend Analysis – Split Transaction screen.

The split transaction feature allows the customer to divide a single transaction into multiple transactions of different categories/sub categories. For example, different items are bought with a single purchase at a departmental store and customer later wishes to split it into different categories / sub-categories, he can do so by using this option.

A transaction can be split into any number of transactions and each division can have their own categories/ sub-categories. The sum of values of all the split categories/ sub-categories transactions should be equal to the main transaction amount. A transaction can be split into categories/sub-categories only once. The split icon is no longer displayed against transactions which have been already split.

Note:

The categorization cannot be reversed to original once the transaction is split.

To split a transaction:

  1. Navigate to the Spend Analysis screen.
