Accurate and consistent logging

GIGO Philosophy from expenseOS — gold in gold out, or garbage in garbage out.

Finie is not a magic. Accurate data is the key.

• Log real amounts. Don't forge them.
• Same merchant spelling every time — “Zomato” not "Jomato".
• Right account. Credit card spend is not cash.
• Transfers are transfers. Do not expense your own savings sweep.
• Log expenses in the right categories, always.

The AI-powered goal tracker, cashflow charts, and nudges all assume the diary is true. Make the diary true!
