OK, cold morning and I've had time to play I would recommend people to install KDE and use KMyMoney or get gnucash Version2 going. I suppose it is better than XFinans but not by much. Sorry Barrie - I really can't find anything really positive to say about it. I would certainly NOT recommend this program. Having defined a 'category' as an expense when posting an amount to it you still have to 'toggle' it as negative. The car expense feature is nice but certainly does not make up for the lack of reporting.Ħ. There is no EXPORT facility so you can't develop your own reporting, nor can you move your data to another program.ĥ. There is no suggestion that the reporting will be improved in future releases.Ĥ. This lack alone would make me reject the use of this program. If you find you have a 'strange' expense (or income) total you would have to manually search through all the transactions in all the accounts to hopefully find the error. Note:- totals only, you cannot find the individual transactions that make up the total. All you can get is a list of all your accounts and their balances and a list of expense and income totals. Maybe this is a paper saving feature, however you can't even get reports on the screen. This the important one - It has an almost total lack of reporting. When I finished that I then found it could not produce a Balance Sheet nor had it calculated an Equity balance so I had no way of being able to easily check my entries.ģ. I began to suspect that this was not going to be satisfactory when as I entered the opening balances it didn't ask for class of account (asset, liability etc) and then didn't ask for the opening balance date. It could do with an English speaker doing some of the translation from FrenchĢ. I've started to code an accounting system and may i'm able to start implementation.1. Including to PLUG it to an enterprise / small bussiness accounting systems. I think Double-Entry it's better and powerful enough for actual and future Money uses.I think it's very important not to use double-entry accouting to keep the software simple and only for a personal or family use.It is easier to design the code this way and expose it to the UI later than to redesign it to support it later. I attached some screenshots of the application.īefore you get started, it is very important to decide if you are going to use double-entry accounting or not. Maybe you could use at least parts of the code and the ideas. Avernus is developed using python, gtk3 and sqlalchemy. There is a simple personal finance tool called avernus (), which fulfills most of the objectives.I didn't want to say that you had to put something in it, but if it's empty, don't add an horizontal seperation for it and leave the vertical separation between account list and view going to the bottom of the app. Great question I think it's great for data like total spend, I would add it what is the empty place down to the app expected to do ?.The pie chart view, show the informations of the actually selected accaunt/item/shop/category in the left (blue highlighted).
