FAQ

How do I record recurring expenses in Craftybase?

Recurring expenses, such as monthly subscriptions or rent, can be recorded manually in Craftybase. While there's no automated recurring expense feature at this time, you can streamline the process by:

  • Assigning a category to each expense makes it easier to track and search.
  • Using the “Copy” feature on an existing expense to quickly create a new entry for the next billing cycle.

This approach helps maintain consistency in your records and ensures your regular costs are accurately reflected in your financial reports.
