Handling unknown transactions
In some rare occassions, you can find transactions marked as UNKNOWN
. This means that the specific transaction was found for the first time in that connection, and that we were unable to categorize it correctly. We value data quality as one of our core principles, so we took the decision of marking those cases as UNKNOWN
instead of miscategorizing them.
Whenever a transaction is marked as UNKNOWN
, we have internal processed in place to resolve the issue as soon as possible. Once the issue is resolved, you will be informed and the transaction should be correctly categorized after a new connection of the credential. We are currently working on a methodology to re-categorize UNKNOWN
transactions without the need of reconnecting the full credential again.
