### Frequently Asked Questions

**Automatic Bank Sync**
**Does Actual sync automatically with your Bank?**

At this moment, it is not yet possible for Actual to automatically sync with your bank. You need to do this manually by going to "All Accounts" and pressing "Sync".

**The best way to start from scratch in Actual with Go Cardless?**

If you are setting up Actual for the first time, it is much easier not to try to pull in historic data. This has caused some users a lot of headaches with subsequent reconciliation. The following process may be more helpful:
1. Set up your account in Actual specifying a correct opening account balance at a recent date.
2. Link the account to Go Cardless as above
3. Sync the account with Go Cardless. You should find that only transactions subsequent to the opening account balance entry are imported, making reconciliation easy.
