📘

Post date and transaction date

As you probably noticed, each movement includes two different dates: a post_date and a transaction_date 🧐. This is because the bank uses accounting dates internally. Some bank even create movements in the future. For example, if you make a transaction on a Saturday, this transaction will appear to have Monday as its date. In this example, Saturday corresponds to the transaction_date, and Monday corresponds to the post_date.

📘

Pending checks

Checks take some time to be confirmed by the bank. This can take as long as 48 business hours. Pending checks can be reversed for several reasons (for example, lack of funds). Fintoc marks pending checks with the pending flag so you know that the movement isn't yet confirmed by the bank.
