You decide the order in which the cost types and payment methods are displayed. For example, if you find the cost of fuel for your car to be the most important, then simply establish that these entries are to be displayed first.

From this same screen you can make a new entry, as well as take a look at the details of already existing entries and edit them, if necessary.

When making a new entry simply enter:

Under settings you can choose your cost types and payment methods. The cost types already include a standard sign, so that you don’t have to pay attention to a plus or minus when making an entry. If you would like to correct an entry, for example because you exchanged something, simply use the sign change button when making the correction. Add as many and as detailed cost types as you need.

You can also individually select your payment types. It is completely up to you which and how many payment types you would like to manage.

In addition to the constantly up-to-date balances, using the analysis function you can decide on a time frame for which you want to be shown the sums per cost type or payment method or show a comparison of earnings to expenditures. For example, on the last day of the month, the sum of your expenses from the 1st to the 31st.
