An Other Bank Transaction refers to any bank transaction other than a check or bank deposit.
You can use Other Bank Transactions to represent a transfer of funds from one bank account to another, and to record transactions such as interest, bank fees and miscellaneous deposits.
You might also use Other Bank Transactions for bank fees, electronic deposits made outside of Buildium, and adjustments to your bank balance.
