# To Review
> Approve transactions imported from a linked bank, merge duplicates with your manual entries, or link a transfer pair.
**To Review** is the queue for transactions that arrived from a
[linked bank](/accounts/connect-a-bank). Rather than dropping bank data straight
into your register, Budget Bandit holds new imports here so you can approve them
and resolve anything that looks like a duplicate or a transfer first.
## What's in the queue
Each card shows a transaction your bank sent — its date, amount, merchant, and
account. Some cards also show a suggested match beside it:
* **Possible duplicate** — a manual transaction you already entered that looks
like the same charge.
* **Possible transfer** — the opposite side of the same money movement on another
linked account.
A pending bank transaction is labeled **Pending** until it posts.
## Approve a transaction
For a plain import with no suggested match, choose **Approve**. The transaction
joins your register on its account.
To approve several at once, check them and use **Approve** at the top of the
queue.
## Resolve a possible duplicate
When the queue thinks an import matches something you already entered, you get
two choices:
Keep your manual transaction and fold the bank's version into it. Use this
when they're the same charge — your categorization and notes stay, and you
avoid a double entry.
Treat them as two separate transactions. Use this when they only look alike
but really are different charges.
## Resolve a possible transfer
When two linked accounts show the two sides of one money movement, the queue
offers:
* **Mark as transfer** — link the pair into a single
[transfer](/transactions/transfers). Both sides leave the queue together.
* **Not a transfer** — approve the transaction as a normal entry instead.
## Categorizing happens in the register
To Review is about confirming imports, not categorizing them. Once approved, a
transaction lives in your register, where you can
[categorize it](/transactions/categorize), flag it, or tag it. Set up a
[rule](/rules/create-a-rule) so imports arrive already categorized.
## If something looks wrong
* The queue is empty but you expected imports → your bank may still be syncing.
See [Fix sync problems](/accounts/fix-sync-problems).
* Duplicates keep slipping through → [Duplicate or missing transactions](/accounts/duplicate-or-missing-transactions).
