Automating Cash Transactions

Automatically sync trades and dividends to your cash account to save time and avoid manual data entry.

Updated over a week ago

Manually entering every transaction into your cash account can be tedious. That’s why Navexa lets you automate cash transactions.

When enabled, trades and dividends/distributions in your holding automatically generate matching entries in your cash account.


How to Enable Automation

  • Create a Cash Account
    • If you haven’t already, see How to add a cash account.

  • Open Cash Account Settings
    • Go to the cash account you want to automate.
    • Click Settings.

  • Set Cash Account Automation Options

A. Sync Trades

  • Set to Yes to automatically create cash transactions for every trade.

  • ⚠ Important: Delete any manually entered cash transactions for trades before enabling, or you may get duplicates.

B. Buy Trades Settlement

  • Choose the settlement period for buy trades (varies by country).

C. Sell Trades Settlement

  • Choose the settlement period for sell trades (varies by country).

D. Sync Trades From Date

  • Optionally set a start date (e.g. 12 April 2024). Only trades on or after this date will sync.

E. Sync Income

  • Set to Yes to automatically create cash transactions for every dividend or distribution.

F. Sync Income From Date

  • Optionally set a start date. Only dividends/distributions paid on or after this date will sync. The Sync Income From Date uses the Date Paid (the date the dividend/distribution was paid in cash).

G. Transaction Filters

  • Filter by broker or source (e.g. CommSec). Only trades and dividends with that source will create transactions.

Save Your Settings

  • Click Save to confirm automation.


What Happens Next

From now on, every new trade or dividend will automatically create a matching transaction in your cash account — no more manual data entry.
