The user interface for grouping transactions into items can be particularly challenging due to the large amount of data that needs to be processed. Having the user go through each and every transaction individually is clearly not an option.

We need a smart interface for grouping transactions into items.

For clarity, the current glossary entry for "item" is attached:
item
A series of financial transactions and their associated data (amounts, descriptions) - all of which are based on a single recurring or non-recurring expense.
Example:
Automotive fuel is a (recurring and seasonal) item.
Not an example:
Credit card payments may seem like an item, but they actually mix and hide different recurring items below (gas, food, etc.) - they are not an actual expense. Credit card interest, however, may be an item.
