Identifying pending transactions in the register

Pending transactions appear in your register. They are separated from other transactions by a solid green line and displayed with a different shade of color than standard transactions so you can easily identify them. They also display an hourglass icon in the Status column.

Identifying pending transactions with Compare to Register

If you do not auto-accept transactions and instead use Compare to Register to review your transactions, then your pending transaction will appear in your Compare to Register panel. To see just the pending items select the Pending Transactions at the top of the panel.
