# Undo a match or delete a transaction

_Skileo Accounting › Bank · Who can do this: Business owner, Member_

Click Reset match on a matched line to undo it: the payment it created is removed. Only unmatched lines can be deleted. They go to the Trash and are not fetched from your bank again.

## Undo a match

1. Open “Bank” in the menu of “Accounting”, then “Transactions”.
2. Click the actions button (**⋮**) of a matched line, then “Reset match”.
3. Click “Yes, reset it!”

The line is “Unmatched” again. On the document:

- a payment the match created is deleted, and the document is unpaid or partly paid again;
- a payment you had recorded by hand and linked to the line stays as it was, but is no longer linked;
- a record created with “Add new record in Finances” stays, unpaid.

## Delete a transaction

1. Click the actions button (**⋮**) of an unmatched line, then “Delete”. To delete several, tick them and click “Delete” above the list.
2. Confirm.

The lines go to the “Trash”, where they can be restored. A matched line can't be deleted: undo its match first. If you ticked matched lines, Skileo deletes the others and tells you how many it skipped.

A deleted transaction is never fetched from your bank again. Restore it if you deleted it by mistake. See [Restore a deleted item](https://www.skileo.com/help/en/restore-deleted-items).

> **Good to know**
> Deleting a bank account can also send its transactions to the “Trash”, matched ones included. See [How the bank accounts list works](https://www.skileo.com/help/en/bank-accounts-overview).
