Recurring Transactions #
Rent, salary, subscriptions, an annual insurance premium — payments that repeat on a schedule don’t need re-typing every time. Set them up once in Settings → Recurring transactions, and Econumo keeps track of when each one is next due.
Econumo never posts anything behind your back. The next occurrence shows up on the account page as Not posted; you confirm it when the money actually moves, or skip it when it doesn’t. Either way the schedule rolls forward to the following date.

Creating a recurring transaction #
Open Settings → Recurring transactions and press Add transaction (on mobile, the + button in the header). The dialog is the same one you use for ordinary transactions, with one extra field:
- Type — Expense, Income, or Transfer, chosen with the tabs at the top.
- Date — in the top-right corner. This is the date of the next payment; every following one is calculated from it.
- Account, Amount (with the same built-in calculator), Category, Recipient, Tags, and Notes — exactly as in a normal transaction.
- Repeats — how often the payment comes back: Weekly, Every 2 weeks, Monthly, Every 3 months, or Yearly.
The list groups your schedules by account, showing the interval, the amount, and the date the next payment falls due.
Posting or skipping a payment #
The next occurrence of every schedule appears in its account’s transaction list, greyed out and labelled Not posted. It is a placeholder: it does not affect your balance until you confirm it.
Select that row to open its details, then choose:
- Post — records the payment as a real transaction. Your balance and budget update, and the schedule moves on to the next date.
- Skip — passes on this occurrence without recording anything, and moves the schedule on to the next date.
Note A payment that is due or overdue shows its date in red, both in the list and on the account page — a quick way to spot what is waiting for you.
You can also post a payment straight from Settings → Recurring transactions: choose Post in the schedule’s three-dots menu (on mobile, tap the row to open the bottom sheet).
Editing and deleting a schedule #
Use the three-dots menu next to a schedule — on mobile, tap the row — and choose Edit to change any of its fields, or Delete to remove the schedule altogether.
Editing a schedule changes future payments only; transactions you have already posted stay exactly as they were. Deleting a schedule likewise leaves posted transactions untouched — it only stops future ones from being suggested.
