[Question] See the "Left to spend" value

[Yusseiin]

Hi, sorry for bad eng.
I think it will be nice to have the "Left to spend" value in the homepage, maybe near the "Total".
Do you think it is a good parameters? Or you do not use it?
Thanks again for your works.

Hi there. Thanks for your suggestion 😁

How would you compute this value?
I'm guessing you want to use only accounts that are "liquid" so something like type = "cash / asset" AND role = "default / shared"?

In the firefly app is the third "panel" in the Dashboard page

and is calculated only with the sum of the budget left for the month ( with + and - )

Oh I see, you're reffering to your budgets. This should be shown somewhere in the Budget card widget.

Yes, i can calculate it going in Budgets widget doing the sum with the remain value, but i think it could be nice to have it in the Total Balance

I'm not a big fan of mixing multiple resource types when they already have a dedicated section. That total balance is computed using only accounts data so it is in the Accounts widget. Your request uses only budgets so it makes sense to be in the Budgets widgets.

I understand, thanks :)
