Features

The program is configured to allow views of the data at several levels: :*Accounts - Kmymoney uses the term Account to represent assets and liabilities. :*Institutions - Institutions is an optional field, but if used, data associated with an institution such as a bank, a broker, a credit card can be viewed easily. Use of Institutions also allows a grouping of accounts. :*Payees - The program accumulates a list of payees. Clicking on the "Payee" view, the user can drill down to transactions associated with a specific payee. :*Categories - Categories is a common feature of accounting software. In Kmymoney, Categories and sub-categories are used to classify expense and income entries. :*Sub-categories - Categories and sub-categories allow transactional data to be rolled up into a parent child relationship. :*Tags - Tags allow the user to further delineate transactional data. A tag can be used to group several categories and accounts together as needed. :*Investments - Kmymoney can help track investments. Other features of the program include check printing via a plugin and several options to retrieve investment prices. Repetitive entries can be scheduled. For example, a paycheck requiring several lines can be set up in the Schedules module. Released under the
