Automatically add to banking registers
When this option is selected, Quicken will enter downloaded banking transactions into all of your registers as soon as they are received. If you've manually entered transactions, Quicken automatically matches those transactions with their corresponding downloaded transactions so you don't end up with duplicates.
If you do not use this option all downloaded transactions must be manually reviewed and accepted before they are added to your registers. Unaccepted transactions will not appear in reports, graphs, and other product features.
