Transaction by category or purpose

One charge can be split into parts with different categories, people, tags, and notes. The total transaction amount and wallet balance do not change.

Parent transaction

The original transaction remains the only wallet charge. Splitting only divides its amount among categories; it does not create additional wallet transactions.

Amounts and categories

Each part needs an amount and category. Parts can also have different people, tags, and notes when a purchase covers more than one person or project.

Sum of all parts

The parts must add up exactly to the parent amount in the same currency. A split cannot be saved while an amount is unassigned or the parts exceed the total.

Budgets and wallet balance after a split

After saving, category totals change in budgets and reports. The wallet balance must remain the same.
