Upgraded interface, budgets, and more …

March 26th, 2009 by Shashank

Folks,

We rolled out several important updates to the site last night:

Budgets

  • Create budgets for different periods: weekly, monthly and yearly
  • Specify start dates and balances for budgets which rollover

Interface changes

  • Projections stands out separately, and is not hidden underneath Reports anymore
  • Use of more graphics and icons as opposed to text, better colors and better layout
  • No advertisements!
  • Sync problems with several banks (including ING) have been fixed

Hope you like the new changes and find them useful!

Improved budgeting …

February 9th, 2009 by Shashank

Folks,

We have released a few important updates to the way budgets work:

  • You can set different limits for different months. Some months are more costly, due to some unforeseen expenses. You can now bump up the limit only for that month. Just edit the limit for a budget as usual, the edit will apply only to the current month. Past months will not be affected
  • Returns and refunds are accounted in budgets. If you enter transactions manually, use the new ‘Refund’ type for transactions. If you sync/import from the bank, you can click on the transaction and ‘Mark it as a refund’.
  • You can start/stop a budget. Clicking ‘Delete’ for a budget only stops it from the current month onwards. Past months are not affected

Hope this improves your budgeting experience! :)

Buxfer availability issues

Easier tag management

November 13th, 2008 by Shashank

We have revamped the tag management interface and made it easy to manage long lists of tags. The new interface lays out your tags more intuitively, and lets you perform “bulk actions”, i.e., actions on multiple tags at one go. For example, you can select 20 tags and delete them all at once.

Hope that helps! :)
