<p>The first time that Moneydance connects to your bank's server, it downloads any and all available data.</p>
<p>It is correct to 'Merge' the downloaded data with any existing data.</p>
<p>When in doubt, it is always best to keep the downloaded transaction over keeping the existing transaction. Doing so prevents it from being downloaded again.</p>
<p>If necessary, you can change the Date / Description / Category of the downloaded data to match that of the existing data, then 'Merge' the two.</p>
<p>To delete a transaction, simply select (highlight) it and either tap the 'DELETE' key on your keyboard OR right-click it (CTRL-click for Mac) and select 'Delete' from the resulting context menu.</p>
<p>Make sure to 'Confirm' all transactions so as to initiate the 'learning' process of the correlation between the 'Description' field and the 'Category' field.</p>
