Watch-outs for Discover statements
Discover usually relies on one signed amount column. Flagged rows often come from a minus sign or parenthesized amount being read the wrong way.
Wrapped merchant descriptions can push the next line out of alignment; check long descriptions when the balance proof fails.
Opening balance, closing balance and page-break continuation rows are not ordinary transactions, so review the first and last rows on multi-page statements.
