We've moved the Color Pattern selection from the My Transactions page to the "Settings" page. This will now have an effect on the whole site. Additionally, we've added another option titled "Alternating" which will allow you to view your Bills, Income, and Transactions now in alternating colors.
We've updated the login page a bit to now take you to a secure page to login instead of logging in directly on the home page. Please feel free to bookmark the secure login page instead to go straight to the login box at https://secure.budgettracker.com/login_secure.php
We've made some modifications behind the scenes to speed up the processing of viewing your transactions. In addition, if you have several transactions, you will now notice we've added in some pagination so that your browser won't have a hard time loading them in.
We've implemented new charts and graphs. The implementation allows users to drill down into your categories to get a breakdown versus the transactions entered. In addition, once you begin to drill down into your categories, you'll see a "View History" link at the top allowing you to see a 4 month comparison of your transaction totals. We are working to release more graphs in March so if there is a graph you would like to view that is not available, please let us know and we'll add it in.
You now have the ability to assign a color for all present and future transactions in your registry. To do so, update an existing transaction of the Payee you would like to update and choose a color. You will then notice a checkbox to assign to all Payees. We've also added a new feature that allows you to color code your transactions by past/present/future, expenses vs. deposits, or your own custom colors so that you can go back and forth at your leisure.
We've updated the My Budget page to now handle carry over items automatically instead of on the first of each month. Once selected, you'll now be able to scroll through future months to see the carry over amount integrated.
We've made some changes to backend to improve performance. If you have several sub-categories, you should now see a big reduction in the time it takes to load the page.
We've added a new page titled Budget Envelopes Beta. This allows you to now carry over your entries on the My Income page and have them show up as columns at the top of the page. You can then drill down into each row and assign portions of your budget to individual Income items. In addition, we'll calculate for you how many columns get shown based on how many recurrences are in the month for that income item. This is still in beta so your feedback and ideas for addons would be appreciated. Some future addons will include:
Ability to update an amount that does not get carried over to all months.
Weekly Budgeting - ability to set start and end dates of Income Entries to show similar to how Weekly and Custom works on the Standard setting.
We've added in a new bar and pie chart showing the last 4 months of transaction history for any given category. To access, either select Category History from the Reports & Graphs section or click the categories on the Income Statement page.
We've updated the My Budget page to now point spent transaction amounts to the search transactions page filtering on the budget category you've chosen. This will give you a total list of transactions with the total amount of all transactions shown instead of by account on the My Transactions page. To filter by category on the My Transactions page, you can choose the Filter dropdown at the top and select the category you want to view.
