Expense Tracker

Track spending against a budget

This expense tracker lets you log each expense, see how much of your budget is used and download a clean PDF report. It shows total spent, money remaining, budget used and your average spend per day, plus a breakdown by category.

How to use it

1. Set a report name, an owner / wallet name, your budget and a currency symbol.
2. Add an expense: title, amount, category, payment method, date and an optional note, then click Add expense.
3. Review the expense list (newest date first), the category breakdown and the quick insights: top category, most-used payment method and expense count.
4. Click Download PDF for an A4 report, use Del to remove an entry, or Clear to remove all entries.

Categories are Food, Transport, Shopping, Bills, Health, Entertainment, Travel and Other. Payment methods are Cash, Card, Bank transfer, Wallet and Other.

How the numbers are calculated

• Remaining = budget − total spent (shown in red if negative).
• Budget used = total spent ÷ budget × 100, rounded.
• Average per day = total spent ÷ number of different dates that have an expense.

Example: with a 1,500 budget, expenses of 84.60 and 32.00 on 1 October and 45.40 on 3 October total 162.00. Budget used is 162 ÷ 1,500 × 100 = 10.8%, shown as 11%. Remaining is 1,338.00, and the daily average is 162 ÷ 2 dates = 81.00.

What the PDF report includes

• Report name, owner name and the date generated.
• Total spent, budget left and daily average.
• A budget progress bar and the top six categories with percentages.
• Every expense with date, title, category, method, amount and note.
