Custom Transaction Fields

The Custom Transaction Fields page lets you enable/disable the Check Number, Memo, Payee and File Attachment fields when adding and editing transactions.

You can find the Custom Transaction Fields settings by clicking on Settings at the top right side of the page, then click on Manage Custom Transaction Fields under the Premium Membership header.

Breakdown of Custom Fields

When any of these fields are enabled, you will be able to see them on the Add and Edit Transaction forms and they will also appear in the Transaction Register and Search results.
