Why are amounts missing or not recognized in the preview?

Last updated on Apr 29, 2026

Short Answer: Confirm '5. Amount representation' matches your file (single signed column vs separate credit/debit) and that the correct 'Amount column' is selected.

PreRequisites

  1. You can see the amount columns in 'Data preview (20 rows)'

  2. You have selected an amount representation option

Steps

  1. Open '5. Amount representation' and confirm how your file stores amounts:
  • Single signed amount column (positive/negative values), or

  • Separate credit and debit columns
    The correct option should be selected.

  1. If using Single signed amount column, verify the 'Amount column' dropdown is set to the correct column (e.g., 'Debit (USD)').
    The selected column should match what you see in the preview.

  2. Check 'Formatted preview (first 5 rows)' to confirm amounts appear correctly.
    Preview should show numeric values with correct signs.

  3. If amounts are still missing, verify the 'Header row' so column names are recognized properly.
    Correct column recognition ensures amounts appear.

Troubleshooting

  1. Amounts appear as text or are blank.
    LikelyCause: Selected column does not contain numeric values or header row is incorrect.
    Action: Ensure the column contains numbers, fix the Header row, and reselect the correct Amount column.

  2. Positive/negative signs are incorrect.
    LikelyCause: Wrong amount representation selected.
    Action: Switch between Single signed amount column and Separate credit/debit columns, then recheck the preview.

Note: Choose the column that truly represents transaction amounts (e.g., 'Debit (USD)' or equivalent in your file) to ensure accurate reconciliation.
