Open the view choices

In Cashflow’s Timeline, open the view control at the top. Tracked + planned shows tracking through the current month, then planning from the next month.

Click the highlighted control or choose Next.

Practice with sample data.
  1. 1

    Choose one month

    Open Cashflow and switch to Timeline if you’re in the monthly summary. Use the date control to choose a year, then find the month’s column.

  2. 2

    Compare tracking with planning

    Open the view control and choose Comparing tracking vs planning. Tracking shows what happened. Planning shows what you expected.

    Check that your latest bank transactions have arrived before comparing.

  3. 3

    Look closer, then decide

    The control now says Tracking vs plan. Compare the amounts in the same month’s column and find the category that explains the difference.

    If it was a one-off, your usual plan may still fit. If it is your new normal, update the recurring item. Changing a plan keeps your real transactions intact.

You’re done when you understand the difference and know your next step.

Something doesn’t look right?

Check that your latest bank transactions have arrived before comparing them with your plan. Review any unexpected transaction’s amount, date and category.

Transfers between your own accounts are not ordinary income or spending. Investment growth changes a valuation rather than recording cashflow. Refunds keep their real date and source.
