    Hi everyone, we're grateful for your feedback on improving Find and Recode, and recognise how sorting by description could enhance your ability to review and recode transactions.

    While not a direct solution, you could filter by Contact and then in the browser Ctrl + F to search highlight keywords in descriptions and find the right transactions. We know it's not perfect, but might help narrow things down.

    To be transparent and provide some clarity here, there are no planned changes to change the functionality within Find & recode right now. We will share if our position around this changes and there are any updates for you all here.

    Being able to add a description condition with a containing word or exact words would be a time saver.

    As an example, I am currently recoding some transactions in an equity account that contains over 700 transactions. I need to recode at least 10+ of these transactions to another account. In my case, if I were able to add a particular word the recodes would take less than a minute to complete. However, I have spent about 15 minutes on these recodes.
