A more expressive and usable transaction history view

October 7th, 2007 by Shashank

We have enhanced the functionality that the history view provides you. The transaction history is probably the most accessed page of our application, and it sorely needed more functionality. So here it comes:

  • Transaction description is shown in full. No more truncated descriptions with ‘…’ at the end. Transaction meta-data (i.e. account, tags, group) is presented clearly and separate from the other transaction details
  • Most of the transaction fields can be edited in place with a click. In a snap, you can add tags, change the date, or switch the account to which the transaction belongs. Whats even better is that each transaction row has a ‘Actions’ dropdown which lets you access *all* transaction related actions in one click. You can edit, delete, settle, copy, print or repeat a transaction periodically … all in one click!

Hope you like it!

    i find the new buxfer far more complicated than the simple one we had before. what we see in transacton history nd what we see in our home page are completely different number adn i really dont know what was the need to complicate things so much that now its almost impossible to use this tool. also most ofthe actions are not intuitive.
    i am sure a lot of extra features have been added but at the cost of far more complex UI…..its the end of buxfer for me…going back to simple and straighfwd excel sheets.

    Jyothi: sorry that you didn’t like the new changes. We would like to hear why exactly you didn’t like the new view. Most of the other users have been raving about the new looks and improved usability. If you could let us know more concretely about what you are finding to be not intuitive and usable, we would love to help you.

    Regarding the different number problem: that seems to be a bug. Can you please send us an email at support@buxfer.com with more details about both these issues?
