Key Concepts

Gross Income
  - Deductions (taxes, social security)
= Net Income
  - Fixed Expenses (rent, utilities, subscriptions)
  - Savings Target
= Disposable Income (money you can actually spend)

Transaction Flags:

  • is_deduction: Pre-income deductions (taxes)
  • is_fixed: Fixed/recurring expenses (rent)
  • is_savings: Savings transfers

Commands

Dashboard

fintrack report generates an interactive HTML dashboard with 5 tabs:

  1. Overview - KPIs, Cash Reconciliation, Timeline charts
  2. Income & Expenses - Sankey diagram, Category Treemap
  3. Savings - Coverage Indicator, Savings vs Target
  4. Budget - Budget vs Actual progress bars with variance display
  5. Transactions - Filterable table with totals and CSV export

Dashboard Options

# Generate dashboard for current period
fintrack report

# Generate dashboard for specific period
fintrack report --period 2024-11

# Generate all-periods dashboard with period switcher
fintrack report --all

The --all flag creates a single HTML file with a dropdown to switch between all periods.

Dark Theme

Add theme: "dark" to your workspace.yaml:

name: my_finances
base_currency: EUR
interval: month
theme: dark  # Options: light (default), dark

Then regenerate the dashboard: fintrack report

See Dashboard Guide for details.
