Flying Money App Tutorial: A Comprehensive Guide to Managing Your Finances
Flying Money App Tutorial
Note: What is in parentheses are comments and need not be entered into the app.
So here we go:
From the point that you have the app installed on your mobile.
At first, you are prompted for a password, you enter any password, this will be required each time you enter the app.
Now with the app open, go to Lists -> coins.
Here you set the currency you will use, in my case (I imagine in yours too
) will be real, then let’s option-> name (this is the standard for adding records in the app), now fill in the fields as follows:
Real Name =
ISO = BRL (Brazilian currency Iso)
Symbol = U.S. $
Currency Source = Yes
Now go to Options-> Ok
The other currencies may be deleted, in my case only left Real, Euro, and U.S. dollar, for currencies that can be used too, so the configuration of the euro left as follows:
Name = Euro
ISO = EUR (Iso the European currency union)
Symbol = €
T = 2.721 (Prices current currency relative to the real)
Currency Source = No
In the case of the dollar, the price now is 1.95
Back to the previous menu (listing) and go under Categories.
Note that the top of the screen is 3 tabs, In, Ex, and Sv, where In = Incomings (Entries), Ex = Expenses (Expenses), and Sv = Savings (savings), you can register, edit, or delete records of these 3 tabs, getting at its own discretion which will be utilized.
An example is, you can leave inputs, wages, income, rental, and something categorize some income, the same will be made for the expenses and savings.
These categories are used when you insert your drives.
Return to the previous menu (lists) and go to Account Types, here will be included types of accounts you have in your app, in my case so I make use of: credit card, debit card, cash, and savings in my cell phone I’m not having the option to delete or add any other type of account But okay, already is taking me to the next, then we will not make changes here.
Then we returned to the previous menu again (lists) and let the classes, here you can create several classes to better organize their movements, in my case I left 2 classes, personal and working class people are the drives connected to me and working class movements are related to my work.
I then split it with all future expenses that had me or my work, e.g., buying a Playstation 3 video game, with 20 games 2 analog controllers, hd 80 GB (what a dream
) Is a personal expense of the class, but the purchase of a screw to the computer company will be an expense of the working class, I can then at the end of the month to take a report of all my expenses with the work, separate the notes and ask for a refund!
You can create several classes according to their needs.
Let us turn now to the main menu, then go to the menu account.
Here you include the accounts that you will drive, e.g.,
you have 4 accounts, savings, debit account, a credit card, and of course your wallet so let’s fill (leave to include the account you use most in the end, because this app is not bringing the option to default, leaving always the last to be inserted as default):
Account Name = 1 (is better if you put the name of the bank as Bco Brazil)
Type = Savings
= Real Money
Number = 12345-6 (Account No, not field required)
Institution = 1234 = 5 (No Agency, field not required)
Account Name = 2
Type = debit card
= Real Money
Number = 65432-1
Institution = 5432-1
Account Name = 3
Type = Credit Card
= Real Money
Number = 56789-0
Institution = 6789-0
Name = Portfolio
Type = Money
= Real Money
Number =
Institution =
Extended tab you can add more information about the account, interesting field is the minimum balance, where you specify a minimum value, that when the account balance to be below this value a message is displayed on your screen.
When you finish adding the account, prompted the current balance, you then fill with the balance you have in your account, e.g., the inclusion of a complete account portfolio, prompted the current balance, then you can put 50 to this is the amount you have in your portfolio now
.
Let’s go back to the main menu, and now in settings.
In back you will choose how much how much time will be backed up your data, left to be done weekly.
Currency origin is Real
Currency position is before the value (to be R$ 123.44 instead of £ 123.44)
Date format, according to what you see fit.
Same thing for Date separator
CSV format is the encoding that the data will be exported (leave ASCII)
CSV Delimiter leave”” (this is the delimiter when the data is exported)
Password protection, if you want to be prompted to start the password app leave On.
Password, you can change the password for the app here.
Font size is the font size, it largely for better viewing.
Font size correction does not know what it does, but also let in Greater
Active Text is the color of selected text
Inactive Text is the text color is not selected.
Come to the main menu and click Register.
This is where the menu will be inserted into the record of his/her movements. That’s what makes everything work, so always feed these records.
Let’s Options -> Name
You can choose to deposit, to insert an entry of money into an account on payment to enter a payment of money or transfer any account to transfer money from one account to another.
Ex payment, you went to the gas station and put $ 100.00 of fuel in the car then we will insert it in the app, choose the payment menu, displays some fields to be filled:
Date = 06/07/2009 (date of move)
Account = Account 2 (Debit Card, remember?
)
Paying Tour = BR
Quantity = 100.00
= Real Money
Category = Fuel
Now tab RF
Golf Ref = PAG (I’ll explain about this field in future, field not required)
Class = Personal (could be vehicles or transport, if you include this class, I had this need since my car is for personal use only)
Note = “anything” (this field is not mandatory but always fill the car’s mileage and the amount of gallons, and can be further explored and miles my car is doing per liter of fuel, if your car is flex you can also write it was alcohol or gasoline
If you have a car and a bike create 2 categories car fuel and fuel bike, or 2 classes, car and bike, so it is easier for you to know who is who in the final report)
Now let’s options-> OK
Ready inserted row!
Note that you could split the costs into different categories, saving the cost or schedule it.
So let’s share the expense, for now besides put $ 100.00 of fuel in the car you also bought U.S. $ 20.00 soft drinks, sweets, and pastries for a party, no alcohol, because you’re driving
, Ah we’ll pay it also divided the credit card in 3 x. assume that the bill of your card to win all 20 days of the month.
Then go to the original menu-> schedules
Now fill this:
Beginning Date = 20/07/2009 (date of first tranche)
= Monthly Schedule (as it will be a portion of a month)
Ending date of use = yes
End Date = 20/09/2009 (date of the last portion)
Next payment = 20/07/2009 (For the first installment in the coming months this bill, if so come in next month’s bill would be 20/08/2009 and end date would be 20/10/2009)
In the General tab
Conta 3 account = (Account credit card)
Paying Tour = BR
Quantity = 40 (it will be divided into 3 times, then 40 x 3 = 120)
= Real Money
Now let’s options -> Division
We set the categories and Fuel Attractions
Now in place Amusement 6.67
and put fuel 33.33
Fill out the Extended tab in accordance with the previous example
Now click Options -> Ok
Over the next 20 days for 3 months then will appear in your record the value of the parcel, you will only confirm it after selecting the share in options -> Accept
You can enter schedules according to their needs, such as your health plan, the share of car financing, a portion of a mortgage, college for children, college, etc..
One tip is to leave the date of payment a few days in advance, so when you open the program you’ll see the payment requesting approval, so you’ll remember their commitments too!
Other relatively interesting option is the memorized transactions that are within the Playlists menu.
Suppose you always put $ 100.00 on gasoline in your car in the U.S. position, paying with his debit card.
So let Lists-> Transactions stored -> Options -> Name -> Payment:
Account account = 2
Paying Tour = BR
Quantity = 100.00
= Real Money
Category = Fuel
Extended tab
Golf Ref = PAG
Class = Personal
Grade =
Options -> Ok
Now let’s Main Menu-> Register -> New operation recorded
Choose the transaction you just added!
There, the fields are filled in, but with the current date and you have to fill only the notes.
Now Lists -> Fields Ref
From what I understand these fields are only an extra resource to differentiate payments, transfers, and transfers.
So you can have fields of references to various types of payments such as payments for PAG common PAGTB payments related to Extractive Industries.
In my view, the classes already meet this requirement, if someone finds a different use for these fields reference people who post here please!
Ready staff, I hope you enjoy this tutorial and the App
I remember that the app does not do anything alone, it needs to be fed, I have learned that it is worthwhile you have their movements recorded somewhere and this app serves very well to this, once you know what you spend, you know where you can save, and in these times of crisis (which has lasted some 500 years
) This is very important!
