Correcting or removing an entry
What changes when you edit an entry, delete one, or clear several at once.
Last updated 15 August 2026
Nothing is fixed once saved. Editing and deleting both take effect immediately, and everywhere the entry was counted.
Editing an entry
Open the entry and change whatever is wrong. The amount, account, category, date, member and note can all be altered.
Changing the account moves the money with it. The balance on the old account rises back, and the new one falls. Changing the amount adjusts the balance by the difference. Nothing is left behind on the original.
Deleting an entry
Deleting asks you to confirm, then removes the entry outright. The account balance returns to what it would have been.
Deleting is not the same as a refund
Delete an entry when it should never have existed — a duplicate, a typo, something recorded against the wrong family. When the money genuinely came back to you, record a refund instead. A refund keeps the history of what happened; a deletion erases it.
Clearing several at once
Every row carries a checkbox, and the one in the header takes everything on the page. A bar appears with the count and a delete action.
There is no undo. A bulk delete is worth reading twice before you confirm it.
Drafts are different
A draft is discarded rather than deleted, and only that one occurrence goes. The schedule behind it is untouched.
