We've added in the ability to enter in your Gallons and Odometer reading when entering transactions from your mobile phone. To access, create a new transaction and click the Add Mileage link. Make sure you select the category that is associated with your mileage on the Gas Mileage page which can be found under Financial in the Advanced menu navigation.
You now have the ability to customize the background color of your transactions. By default, all transactions are color coded blue=past,red=today,white=future. If you select a color when updating a transaction, that color will get used instead of the default.
We've added a Site Map link to the bottom of each to allow you to view all links on the site at anytime without having to change your navigation menu. This is useful for when users go into Simple mode. The navigation menu is a minimal set of links so you can now still access any link on the site yet stay in simple mode.
We've added a few starting templates to the Budgeting Wizard which include "College", "Kids", and "Envelope System". If you go to My Budget and click the goto... dropdown, choose Budgeting Wizard. From there you'll see a template dropdown where you can choose which type of user you are to narrow down available categories. In a future release we'll also be adding in some Accounting Templates to the list.
When creating a new transfer, you now have the ability to associate a fee with that transfer. This is most commonly used when recording an ATM withdrawal as a transfer from Checking to Cash since Cash is recorded in BudgetTracker as a separate account. On the Transfer page, you will now see a Fee checkbox. When checked, you can enter the amount of the fee and the category this fee belongs to. Once saved, your withdrawal transfer will get recorded as a split transaction between the amount withdrawn and the fee. The deposit will record the total transferred minus the fee.
We've added a weblog to the site where we'll be posting how-to information, financial tips, and tutorial videos on different aspects of using the site. To access, you'll now see a Weblog link at the bottom of every page next to Terms of Agreement.
When creating a new Loan, you can now have a Bill Transfer automatically created for you. When creating a credit card account, you now have the ability to select which account your credit card is being paid from when generating a new bill for your new account.
We've updated the My Budget page to now allow you to choose a start and end date for your Budget. The budget amount amount will be calculated as if your budget is for those exact dates and apply the transactions that fall within the start and end date. When custom is chosen, both weekly and monthly budgeted items will change to the custom dates you choose while in custom mode. This will allow you to see if you would have over budgeted if your budget was set to different dates.
