 It is recommended to run this script once per month.

+
+# Setup with Docker:
+This guide assumes you already have a working version of docker installed and have cloned the repo to a location of your choice.
+
+Build the container image_
+`docker build -t actual-helper ./`
+
+Test if the docker container works correctly.
+`docker run -itd actual-helper --name actual-helper`
+`docker exec actual-helper node sync-banks.js`
+
+If it is working correctly the bank sync should execute and run. Now lets automate this to run on a schedule. To do this we will be using systemd timers and a shell script to create a new container and execute the update scripts we want to use.
+Allow the script to be executed. Update the script where it does `docker exec` to include any of the scripts you wish to run.
+`chmod +x ./update.sh`
+
+Update the actual-helper.service file to point to the correct location of the update.sh file. Change the user and group info if needed. Also add a healthchecks.io ID to the **.env** if you want to automate alerting as well.
+`mv ./actual-helper.timer /etc/systemd/system`
+`mv ./actual-helper.service /etc/systemd/system`
+
+`systemctl enable actual-helper.timer`
+`systemctl enable actual-helper.service`
+Note: The timer is configured to run at midnight daily by default.
