Show a breakdown of what Savings Goals an account has contributed to in Account Balances (edited)

Hey, I love Simplifi and the savings goals however in the account page when it shows the breakdown per account is just says savings goals rather than a break down of how much is going to which savings goals.
it would be great if you could make it to where instead of savings goals: $200 it would say Vacation: $100 emergency fund: $100.
Nothing fancy just easily being able to see the amount of money each account is contributing to each saving goal as I have multiple. Thanks guys!

Hello @CharlesStello,
Thanks for posting your suggestion to the Community!
To clarify, are you referring to the 'Savings Goals' amount that's displayed with your account balances?
Please let us know, thank you!

Havin the new sub entry for money allocated to Goals from an account is great, but it doesn't give an at a glance understnading of where you are with a goal.
Right now, under an account, we just have the entry "Savings Goals". I use high interest online savings accounts to store Goal money, since it is sittiing there and should earn interest. Given that, I may have one to many different goals allocated from that account. Bundling the total saved up into a single entry called "Savings Goals" doesn't help. It should be multi-line; "Vacation Savings", "New house savings", "New car", etc.
Also, a given Goal should allow funding from different accounts. Perhaps a long term goal (1-5 years) will be funded partially by a CD, I might buy that CD from my Checking bank, but allocate it to a "New car" Goal, which is otherwise being funded through a high interest savings account. I.e.Checking Bank $ 5,500
Vacation Goal 800
Available $4,700Checking Bank CD $10,000
New Car Goal $ 3,000Avaiable $ 7,000
Online Bank $6,500
New Car Goal 1,500
Vacation Goal 2,200Available $2,800
You should also be able to see a transaction list in the Goals rather than just the total saved.
Just some thoughts.

This could potentially make the Accounts List pretty busy and very long (I have 17 Savings Goals). However, I certainly see why this would be really beneficial so would you also be okay if when you clicked the highlighted…
…it took you to that info? Right now, clicking this takes you to the Savings Goals home page ("By goal"). What it it took you to "By account" instead - ideally, it would jump you directly to the account you just clicked?
I'd absolutely vote for that!

I have 36 savings goals and do not need to see them on my account list. [edit: If this is added, at least make it collapse-able]
I did recently need to see 'by account' and didn't know that was there —— In my case, I contibuted to -one- of those 36 savings goals from the wrong account, and it had seemed the only way to find out which one was to open each goal and look. By account view would've made that easier. But that's there, i just wasn't aware of it.

I think that would be agreat solution as well. I can see where someone who's goal oriented could have quite a list in the accounts. I'd still like to see a transaction list so you knew what transactions went to what goal(s).
