Core Commands

Add Expenses

finance add <amount> "<description>"

Amount formats:

  • 50000 — plain number

  • $50 — USD, auto-converts to your currency
  • €100 — EUR
  • 100 USD — explicit currency

Examples:

finance add 50000 "lunch"
finance add 50k "groceries"
finance add $25 "Netflix subscription"

Undo & Edit

# Remove last transaction
finance undo

# Edit a transaction
finance edit <id> --amount=60000
finance edit <id> --desc="dinner with friends"
finance edit <id> --category=food

# Delete specific transaction
finance delete <id>

View & Search

finance report [period]    # today, week, month, year, all
finance recent [n]         # last n transactions
finance search "food"      # search by keyword

🔄 Recurring Expenses

Track subscriptions and bills that repeat automatically.

Add Recurring

finance recurring add <amount> "<description>" <frequency> [--day=N]

Frequencies: daily, weekly, biweekly, monthly, quarterly, yearly

Examples:

finance recurring add 110k "mobile provider" monthly --day=1
finance recurring add 50k "Netflix" monthly
finance recurring add 200k "gym membership" monthly --day=15

Manage Recurring

finance recurring              # List all
finance recurring list         # Same as above
finance recurring due          # Show what's due today
finance recurring process      # Auto-log all due expenses
finance recurring remove <id>  # Deactivate

How It Works

  • Recurring expenses track their next due date
  • Run finance recurring process daily (or in heartbeat) to auto-log
  • Each logged expense appears in your regular transactions
  • Monthly totals shown in the recurring report

🎯 Savings Goals

Set targets and track progress towards financial goals.

finance goal add "New Laptop" 5000000 --by=2026-06-01
finance goal add "Emergency Fund" 10000000
finance goal add "Vacation" 3000000 --by=2026-08-01 --current=500000
