Bug Description

Is it at all possible, when creating budgets, to make the budgeting period "Fortnightly". My reasons for this are that we are Pensioners and we are paid fortnightly so our budgeting needs to be done every two weeks so that we can see if we're going to starve during the second week (only joking).

Most pensioners like us in Australia are paid every two weeks. Just a thought.

Have been using Homebank for a long time and wouldn't use anything else now, brilliant.

Regards
John

Hi from Greece,
I need desperately the same thing.
I am using the app for noting down my expenses & Income but the preview of the current status is wrong since I am getting pay the 24th of every month.

I wish to be able to configure that time frame...

Except that... the app is amazing.

Hope to make this Wish real.

Thank you
Tasos

@Tasos: so for you the current month should range from 24th to 23rd of the next month ?

remind to me: Fortnightly is every 2 weeks

@Maxim: Very funny :)
My reports are faulty since I am not paid my salary every 1st of the month. I have to run my own custom reports every time.
I think it is a logical request as many other requests. But "configurable time frame of Budgeting" was an easy to make configuration.
I REALLY NEED IT.

Thank you all.

My salary that I receive is on the 25th of a month. The expences occured is now shown over two months, 5 days in one month and the other in the next month till the 24th. Is there a way I can setup a budget starting date to accomodate for this?

This will allow for a user defined "financial month" and not only for a standard callendar month that starts the 1st.
