💻
Pitch: what problem are you trying to solve?
Most accounts are automatically synced via gocardless. Additionally it would be nice to track expenses from other sources like accounts that are not in actual, cash, etc. These accounts shouldn't maintain a balance since the only purpose is to track expenses for the sake of budgets so needing to manually keep track of balances would be a hassle.
Describe your ideal solution to this problem
I think the only real change for this would need (open to suggestions and critique as well) would be to hide the balance of that account from the overview and the "All accounts" summary, assuming that doesn't interfer with the Budget screen.
Teaching and learning
When creating an account additionally to "Off budget" there could be a checkbox "Expenses only"
