How do I add a cash purchase or other manual transaction?

Add cash spending or income that won’t arrive from a connected bank.

Manual transactions are useful for a cash purchase, a payment to a babysitter, or income from an account you haven’t connected.

The date you enter determines which month includes the transaction. Enter the merchant, amount, date, and category.

Will this duplicate a bank purchase?

It can. If you used a connected card, the purchase may still arrive automatically. Check bank-sync timing before entering it by hand.
