Rules for Special Cases

How to Set Up Detailed Rules for Vendor Payments

NOTE: This guide assumes a general understanding of rule creation in Bitwave. For general rule creation steps, follow the steps listed here.

NOTE: it is recommended that you first begin by setting up the desired rule and apply it to a small time frame (such as a day or two). This is to test and ensure that the rule works as intended before applying it to all transactions that fall within the rule’s parameters.

Step 1: Navigate to the Rules Screen

Navigate to Transactions > Rules in the Bitwave application
Click the “Create Rule” button

Step 2: Set up the Rule

Name the rule and set priority
Point the rule to a particular wallet
Specify a token for the rule
Change the categorization to “Detailed Categorization”
Click “Add Line” at the bottom of the rule creation page. This will add a detailed line to the rule creation
1. Select “Amount” for Value Extractor
2. Select “COIN” for Asset Extractor
3. Specify the address you are paying to or are receiving payment from in the Qualifier Extractor section
  1. Use this format to categorize disposals:
```
txnLineTo == 0x0000...
```
  2. Use this format to categorize additions:
```
txnLineFrom == 0x0000...
```
4. Select a category for the transaction
5. Select a vendor for who you are paying
6. Set the direction for the rule to “All”

Repeat step 2(5) as many times as needed to create the desired rule

NOTE: This rule works for any combination of sending to the addresses specified in the rule.
ex. You specify 10 addresses in 1 rule related to USDC payments from wallet 0xExample.
Any payment related to those 10 addresses in USDC from 0xExample will be categorized according to the detailed rule.

A tx paying 8 of the addresses, a tx paying 5 of the addresses and a tx paying 1 of the addresses will all be categorized.
A tx paying 10 of the addresses and an additional unspecified address would remain uncategorized.

Step 3: Save the Rule

Click “Save” at the bottom of the rules creation page
