<p>What's new</p>
<p>- Budgeting support<br />
iCash v4 introduces Budgeting, a feature designed to replace cumbersome and<br />
error-prone spreadsheets. Indeed, it is now possible to take advantage of<br />
the data you have been typing in iCash so far in order to create a budget.<br />
iCash budget feature is very user-friendly and straightforward, just adjust<br />
a few parameters, click on the calculate button and you are done. Actually<br />
when you use iCash budgeting feature, there are two ways to set it up. One<br />
is to let iCash look at your history and estimate what the budget should be<br />
and the other way is to assign a number for a specific item. In fact,<br />
accounts and categories are automatically populated so they can be adjusted<br />
manually. In addition, a summary panel displays all the totals per interval<br />
for both your incomes and expenses. You can create as many budgets as<br />
needed and as usual, you can print and export them.</p>
<p>- Overview Panel navigation<br />
We have brought iCash Overview panel to a whole new level giving you the<br />
ability to browse thru types and categories as if you were handling folders<br />
on your desktop. You can double-click a type or category to see its<br />
contents down to account level. You can go back and forth, return to root<br />
view, refresh a view, print or export current view and hide or display<br />
deactivated items. A new navigation toolbar has been placed right above the<br />
viewer. In addition a new pull-down menu lets you jump to a given view by<br />
telling iCash to display a given type or category. This is really handy if<br />
you need to temporally isolate the items you are interested in. Of course<br />
next time you open a document, last view will be restored.</p>
<p>- Overview Panel flat list display<br />
The Overview panel finally offers the possibility to also display flat<br />
lists. In fact, you can now set iCash to show a flat list of accounts from<br />
multiple categories and/or types at once rather than hierarchically<br />
organized as it was done so far. That allows you to easily compare accounts<br />
by sorting them exactly the way you need. Of course, it also allows you to<br />
print what you see on screen so you are no longer limited to default<br />
hierarchically organized lists.<br />
Currency update thru the Internet<br />
If you are connected to the internet, it is now easier than ever to keep<br />
all your currency exchange rates updated. Just open the currency window and<br />
click on the 'Update Now' button. All rates will be updated taking the<br />
default currency as the reference. The default currency is the one in bold<br />
on the list. You can easily change it, select any currency, press your<br />
mouse right button (or Cmd+left button) and select the 'Make Default' menu.<br />
Once done, don't forget to click on the 'Update Now' button to take the new<br />
currency as the reference and to update all rates accordingly.</p>
<p>- Support for Bar and Pie charts<br />
The Toolbar pie chart icon has finally been honored. Now you can create<br />
both bar and pie charts in addition to default line chart. Line and bar<br />
charts are intended to display the evolution of an account or a group of<br />
accounts over the time whilst the pie chart simply shows ratios. In<br />
layman's terms it simply allows you to visually compare accounts or<br />
categories of the same type. For example it allows you to know the<br />
proportion of a given expenditure compared to others.</p>
<p>- Colored balance status<br />
Both the general and transaction status lines now use colors to display<br />
positive and negative amounts. Besides it looks pretty it is very likely<br />
many users will discover its utility for the first time. Indeed, that line<br />
offers a quick view of your current situation. Color was a long time<br />
request actually.</p>
<p>- Enhanced balance report<br />
You can now create a Balance report by category. When selecting 'Balance<br />
sheet' you now have three choices, 'Summarized', 'Accounts' and<br />
'Categories'. In addition you can create a report at a given date or for a<br />
date range. By choosing a date range you simply ask iCash to calculate the<br />
balance at two different dates and the variation between them. In other<br />
words, you can get for example January 1st and December 31th balances on<br />
the same sheet along with the variation percentage between those two dates.</p>
<p>and also...</p>
<p>- Much faster DB engine<br />
We took advantage of this new release to update the SQL engine used by<br />
iCash to the very last version available. All procedures are now much<br />
faster. Besides of that this new version will also allow future<br />
developments.</p>
<p>- Deactivated Accounts<br />
Accounts can now be deactivated directly from both the Overview panel and<br />
the account editor window. In addition you can set iCash to hide such<br />
accounts. As a reminder a deactivated account doesn't appear in pull-down<br />
menus throughout the application so it can no longer be chosen.</p>
<p>- Duplicating or transferring transactions to same days<br />
The transaction duplication/transfert window has been enhanced to allow<br />
transferring or duplicating transactions to a different month keeping each<br />
transaction original day. That lets you for example duplicate/transfert<br />
transactions on march 1, 2 and 5 to april 1, 2 and 5.</p>
