Merchant resolution of financial transaction records

Most people find it difficult to monitor and manage all of their financial data, due to the time and effort required to track their spending. With the advent of e-finance, instead of barter or cash-based transactions, most transaction data utilizes debit or credit cards. The resulting electronic “paper-trail” opens the possibility of helping individuals to manage their financial data. The goal of our project is to help people manage and monitor their financial history in a more user-friendly way, and make financial recommendations based on their own history. Given a large database of merchants and stores, the intern’s responsibility is to match the transactions with corresponding merchant accurately.
