Cleaning up the payees is the trickier part.
I guess in cases like Amazon, where you might buy a plethora of things across different accounts, ML might be helpful
- cup-of-tea 8y agoThe payees in my case are numerous enough that a dictionary would be too much to maintain. I don't actually clean up the payees, although I have thought about it. At the moment I leave the payee string so that if I use register on my bank account, for example, it looks exactly like my bank statement. I generally don't care what shop I bought groceries at. Those payee strings also sometimes contain interesting information like the location of the shop, so I wouldn't want to lose that.
