14 Create split transactions Each transaction can consist of multiple split transactions. For example, you buy groceries (main transaction) and want to separate some items like milk to build a more detailed report in the future and see how much you spent on milk. When adding the main transaction just press Split button as shown on the picture and create multiple split transactions - each having separate amount, category, project and notes. When done press Back button to return to the main transaction. In addition, split transactions can be transfers! For example you have a mortgage transaction that transfers some funds to the mortgage account (principal repayment) and pays another part as bank interest (ordinary expense category). As result you can track how much that bank makes on you and watch your debt balance reducing. Copyright © 2013-2015, K-Tech Systems Ltd

Once you are confident with the application switch off hints to increase useful screen space (Settings -> Options). Report names are stored in the data file and may still be in English when you switch the language. No need to reset the data - just rename the reports manually to any language you prefer and sort them the way you like. If something went wrong and you want to roll back – try to restore from local backup first, it is created every time you leave the application. Copyright © 2013-2015, K-Tech Systems Ltd
