Setting Dates for Expenses

Setting Dates for Expenses

Log expenses with the correct date, even if you're entering them later.

Why Date Matters

Accurate dates help you:

• See your spending timeline correctly
• Get accurate statistics by time period
• Remember when purchases were made
• Track against budgets properly

Changing the Date

1. Open the expense form (manual entry or edit)
2. Tap the Date field
3. Use the date picker to select the correct date
4. Confirm your selection

The Date Picker

The date picker shows:

• Calendar view — Tap any day to select it
• Current date — Highlighted for reference
• Month navigation — Swipe or tap arrows to change months

Tips for Backdating

• Keep receipts — They help you remember exact dates
• Log weekly — Don't let expenses pile up too long
• Be approximate — If unsure, pick your best guess
• Check statements — Use bank or card statements to verify dates

Default Behavior

• New expenses default to today's date
• Voice recordings use today's date unless you specify otherwise
