Basic Recording

BeeCount supports three transaction types: Expense, Income, and Transfer.

Quick Recording​

Tap the "+" button at the bottom center to open the recording page.

Recording Page

Steps​

  1. Select Type - Expense / Income / Transfer
  2. Enter Amount - Use the number pad
  3. Select Category - Tap a category icon
  4. Select Account - Choose the associated account
  5. Save - Tap the save button in the top right

✨ Since v3.3.0: the amount keypad supports + − × ÷ — long-press or double-tap to switch, handy for splitting bills or merging receipts right on the keypad.

Record Another Entry​

For a new expense or income, double-tap Done to save the current entry and return to category selection for the next one. A single tap keeps the usual behavior: save and return to the transaction list.

Optional Information​

  • Note - Add a transaction description
  • Tags - Add one or more tags
  • Date & Time - Change the recording time (for backdating)
  • Image - Add a receipt or proof

Copy Transactions​

Since App 3.8.6, you can copy a transaction from the home page list:

  1. Long-press an expense, income or transfer and choose Copy.
  2. Amount, category, accounts, notes, tags, currency and statistics/budget flags are prefilled. The date and time default to now and can be changed.
  3. Adjust the fields and tap Done to save an independent new transaction.

The original transaction stays unchanged. Cancelling creates no record. Images from the original entry are not copied; add receipts for the new transaction separately.

Edit & Delete​

  • Tap a transaction to edit it
  • Swipe left on a transaction to delete it

Transfer Records​

Transfers move funds between different accounts:

  • Select "Transfer" type
  • Choose source and destination accounts
  • Enter transfer amount

The system automatically updates both account balances.

Web Recording​

After logging in to BeeCount Cloud on the web, desktop entry is faster:

  • + New transaction button — top-right of the transactions page opens a dialog
  • ⌘K / Ctrl+K command palette — works on any page; type amount or note, pick "New transaction"
  • Bulk operations — list view supports multi-select delete / export CSV (see Transactions)
  • Desktop keyboard flow — number pad, Tab to switch fields, Enter to save

Transactions created on web sync to mobile within seconds via cloud, and vice versa.
