Commenting on Transactions

You can leave comments on any transaction in Mercury to keep your team aligned, and make sure any relevant context stays with the transaction.

How commenting works

Anyone with access to a transaction can leave a comment and view the full comment history. This is useful for sharing context, asking questions, or flagging something for review.

To mention a teammate in a comment, type @ followed by their name. Only users who have access to the transaction can be tagged.

When a comment is added, the following people will be notified:

  • The person who initiated the transaction
  • Any approvers
  • Anyone who has previously commented
  • Anyone mentioned in the comment


Notifications are sent via email, in-app updates, and the Mercury Slack App.

Note: Comments do not sync with your connected accounting software at this time.
