Step 3: Check & link transactions
After you have uploaded your transactions, you should link deposits and withdrawals between your depots. You can use automatic or manual linking. Click on the Transactions menu item to view unlinked transactions, warnings, or errors.
Automatic & manual linking of transactions
To create your transaction history transparently, deposits and withdrawals should be linked. For transactions that have taken place within a period of 6 hours, Blockpit offers an automatic link via the “Link now” button.
In addition, there is the possibility of manual linking via the button “+New link” directly on the transaction.
Here you will find instructions on how to link transactions automatically & manually.
A correct calculation of your profits and losses is based on a complete transaction history.
Warnings and errors help to identify possible gaps in your history. They can be caused by unconnected depots or unlinked deposits and withdrawals, and should always be corrected to the best of your knowledge and belief.
Here you can find instructions on how to solve warnings and errors.
