Verified feature request does not already exist?

  • I have searched and found no existing issue

💻

  • Would you like to implement this feature?

Pitch: what problem are you trying to solve?

There should be an option to hide accounts that are no longer used (when I close a bank account, for example). These accounts still affect the budget balance (they are not outside the budget). But since these are accounts I no longer use, there could be an option to hide them from the account list on the left side of the screen.

Describe your ideal solution to this problem

There might be a hide option, and it would go to a hidden account group, with their balances next to it. If I open the hidden account group, there would be an option to unhide the account.

There is an option to close the account in the menu inside the account, or right click on the account name in the sidebar.
