i believe they have confirmed it is coming back already. I believe it was unintentionally removed, or it was removed and there was enough complaints about it being gone that - they decided it's coming back.
I don't know that they have a timeline.

Re: Income & Expense Report: Share your feedback here!
Really like the new income & expense report that allows me to see a summary of categories per each month over a multi-month period along with total per category. One addition I'd love to see with this report is the ability to enter an annual budget amount for each category somewhere in Simplifi and be able to choose an option to display the annual budget amount in a column beside the YTD total for each category in this report. Being able to see that in a simple report is something that I have found quite lacking in Simplifi. Thanks for considering!
Re: Annual Spending Plan
I would love a better way to save for and spread out the less frequent expenses as well. I lean towards savings goals as well and already kind of have a few set up this way. It's still more manual than I would prefer.
Here's a half (or less)-baked idea that could take advantage of the information already captured in other areas…I would assume that most of us have these expenses already set as recurring series. I wonder if it would be possible to assign a Series to a Goal. Maybe with the option to +/- by a set dollar amount or percent to account for possible billing changes year over year. I haven't fully thought through how the goal amount would calculate to account for the wide variation in frequencies or how it would update/reset year over year, etc. I do think users would have different ways they would want the goals split, with some wanting only one or two broader goals while others would want much more segregated goals (one for car insurance, one for annual subscriptions, one for seasonal lawn care, etc), so having flexibility in the goal assignment would be important.
It's just a thought and may or may not be a good solution, but thought I'd throw it out there to get wheels turning!
Re: Recycle Bin for Deleted Transactions (edited)
It sounds like there should be a dialogue confirming the delete to prevent that from happening. That would probably be easier than a recycle bin for deleted transactions.

Re: Annual Spending Plan
@DannyB Thanks for the clarification. I hope you get something. I currently have a Savings Goal but never have found them too useful for me.
I don't need a goal for savings. I just save. 😀 I have an amount in my head as a limit in my Checking account. When it is over that on the last day of the month, I move the extra to Savings. I did it just now.
The Devil is always in the details.

I have exported data from Quicken/Simplifi for 15 years just so i could get the view you finally created with Spending Plans in Simplifi. THANK YOU THANK YOU.
Key item: What is the actual cash I have left and how did i get there
Income
Minus Bills
Minus Planned Spending
Minus Other spending
Minus what i shoved into 401K, or Health savings account, or rainy day fund, or investment accounts (yea all of the cash that i did not SPEND but I CAN NOT ACCESS)
leaves you with what cash I really have left to spend.
Re: Spending Plan Redesign: Share your feedback here!
I actually liked bills split from subscriptions. With all the streaming platforms that are out there is was so helpful to get a quick glance at what im paying for in order to identify things that maybe i can swap our or eliminate all together. its nice to filter to it, but would be better to add the type as a column that you can sort by.
