# Transaction status and scope

> Each transaction has a status that says how much of it is matched to invoices: To process, Unmatched, Partially matched, Matched or Ignored. Invunion sets it from the matches. The scope decides which lines Invunion tries to match at all: money in, refunds of credit notes, and lines you include. This page explains both, with examples.

Each transaction has two things that tell you where it stands:

- Its **status**: how much of it is matched to invoices.
- Its **scope**: whether Invunion tries to match it at all.

## Status

Invunion sets the status for you. It changes each time a match is added or removed.

| Status | Meaning |
| --- | --- |
| <span class="kb-pill kb-pill-slate">To process</span> | A new line. Invunion has not worked on it yet. |
| <span class="kb-pill kb-pill-yellow">Unmatched</span> | Invunion looked, but no invoice is matched yet. |
| <span class="kb-pill kb-pill-blue">Partially matched</span> | Part of the amount is matched. The rest is in **Remaining**. |
| <span class="kb-pill kb-pill-green">Matched</span> | The whole amount is matched. Nothing is left. |
| <span class="kb-pill kb-pill-stone">Ignored</span> | Left out of matching, by you or by a rule. |

### An example

A customer sends **1,000 EUR**. The line arrives as <span class="kb-pill kb-pill-slate">To process</span>.

1. Invunion matches it to an invoice of 600 EUR. The status becomes <span class="kb-pill kb-pill-blue">Partially matched</span>, and **Remaining** shows 400.
2. You match a second invoice of 400 EUR. The status becomes <span class="kb-pill kb-pill-green">Matched</span>, and **Remaining** shows 0.
3. If you remove both matches, the status goes back to <span class="kb-pill kb-pill-yellow">Unmatched</span>.

### Filters on status

In the **Status** filter of the list, two choices group several statuses:

- **To match**: <span class="kb-pill kb-pill-slate">To process</span> and <span class="kb-pill kb-pill-yellow">Unmatched</span> together. These are the lines waiting for you.
- **Nothing allocated**: lines with no match at all. Ignored lines are left out.

You may also see <span class="kb-pill kb-pill-sky">Pending</span> on old lines. New lines no longer get it.

## Scope: what Invunion tries to match

Your bank account holds many lines that are not customer payments: salaries, taxes, bank fees, transfers between your own accounts. Invunion keeps them all, so your balance stays right. But it only tries to match the lines that are **in scope**.

| Line | In scope? |
| --- | --- |
| **Money in** | Yes, unless it is ignored. |
| **Money out** that refunds a customer | Yes, when the customer has an open credit note, the line names a credit note, or it is already matched to one. |
| **Other money out** | No. It shows as <span class="kb-pill kb-pill-stone">Ignored</span> with the reason <span class="kb-pill kb-pill-reason">Outbound - not a credit-note refund</span>. |
| **Transfer between your own accounts** | No, unless an internal invoice or credit note is open. |
| A line you **ignore** | No. |
| A line you **include** | Yes, always. |

The **Scope** filter of the list shows **Reconciliation** by default: only the lines in scope. Choose **Outside scope** to see the others, or **All movements** to see everything.

### Why a line is outside scope

A small orange badge under <span class="kb-pill kb-pill-stone">Ignored</span> says why:

| Reason | Meaning |
| --- | --- |
| <span class="kb-pill kb-pill-reason">Payroll</span>, <span class="kb-pill kb-pill-reason">Tax</span>, <span class="kb-pill kb-pill-reason">Bank fees</span>, <span class="kb-pill kb-pill-reason">Loan</span>, <span class="kb-pill kb-pill-reason">Other</span> | An [exclusion rule](https://www.invunion.com/knowledge-base/exclusion-inclusion-rules/) took it out. |
| <span class="kb-pill kb-pill-reason">Internal transfer</span> | Money moved between two of your own accounts. |
| <span class="kb-pill kb-pill-reason">Manually ignored</span> | Someone ignored it by hand. |
| <span class="kb-pill kb-pill-reason">Supplier payment</span> | It pays a supplier. Supplier invoices are not reconciled yet. |
| <span class="kb-pill kb-pill-reason">Outbound - not a credit-note refund</span> | Money out that does not refund a customer. |

### Ignore or include a line

On a line of the list:

- <svg class="kb-icon" viewBox="0 0 24 24" aria-label="Ignore" role="img"><path d="M10.733 5.076a10.744 10.744 0 0 1 11.205 6.575 1 1 0 0 1 0 .696 10.747 10.747 0 0 1-1.444 2.49"/><path d="M14.084 14.158a3 3 0 0 1-4.242-4.242"/><path d="M17.479 17.499a10.75 10.75 0 0 1-15.417-5.151 1 1 0 0 1 0-.696 10.75 10.75 0 0 1 4.446-5.143"/><path d="m2 2 20 20"/></svg> **Ignore from reconciliation** takes the line out. If it was matched, Invunion asks first, then removes the matches.
- <svg class="kb-icon" viewBox="0 0 24 24" aria-label="Include" role="img"><path d="M2.062 12.348a1 1 0 0 1 0-.696 10.75 10.75 0 0 1 19.876 0 1 1 0 0 1 0 .696 10.75 10.75 0 0 1-19.876 0"/><circle cx="12" cy="12" r="3"/></svg> **Include in reconciliation** brings it back. It becomes <span class="kb-pill kb-pill-yellow">Unmatched</span>.

Your choice wins. When rules run again, Invunion does not undo it.

To ignore many lines at once, such as all salaries, use an [exclusion rule](https://www.invunion.com/knowledge-base/exclusion-inclusion-rules/) instead.
