After many months of "correct" use, I also have encounteted miscalculations as described in https://bugs.launchpad.net/financisto/+bug/804104 .
I am perfectly aware that this software comes without warranty etc. There is noone to claim if I base decisions on wrong numbers.
With dozens of accounts and hundreds transactions each, recalculating totals and running balances on each startup would be a costly overkill.
It would, however, be great if financisto did some integrity checks. A very quick and simple one that comes to mind is:
Whenever financisto is started, compare all totals with their respective running balances. Iff they do not match, show a warning and allow to recalculate them.
Two related improvements:
1. provide some means to manually trigger the suggested integrity check
2. make the "totals" button (in the lower right of blotter views) recalculate both, the account's total *and* running balance. |
After months of "correct" daily use, I also have encounteted miscalculations as described in https://bugs.launchpad.net/financisto/+bug/804104 .
I am perfectly aware that this software comes without warranty etc. There is noone (but me) to claim if my decisions are based on wrong numbers.
On the other hand, recalculating totals and running balances on each startup might be overkill.
