Edit or Delete a Transaction

Learn how to view transaction details in Dialcash and when to edit or delete them without affecting your financial control.

Edit or Delete a Transaction

Accessing Transaction Details

In Dialcash, all your transactions are accessible for review.

You can view transaction details by:

  • Tapping a transaction in the recent movements list
  • Or selecting it from the complete transaction list

Tapping on a transaction opens a view with all its information.


Available Information in a Transaction

In the detail view you can see:

  • The amount
  • The type (expense or income)
  • The date
  • The associated account
  • The description (if one was added)

This view allows you to confirm everything is correct before making changes.


Editing a Transaction

Editing a transaction is useful when:

  • You made a mistake in the amount
  • You chose the wrong category
  • You recorded the transaction in the wrong account
  • You need to correct the date

When you edit a transaction:

  • The account balance updates automatically
  • The budget recalculates if the account is a main account

You don’t need to delete and create again; editing is sufficient.


Deleting a Transaction

Deleting a transaction is recommended when:

  • The record was a mistake
  • You duplicated a movement
  • The transaction never actually occurred

When you delete a transaction:

  • The account balance adjusts
  • The budget reflects the correct state again

Deleting doesn’t damage your information; it simply reverses that movement.


Edit or Delete?

A simple rule:

  • ✏️ Minor error → Edit
  • ❌ Incorrect record → Delete

Both options are safe and designed to correct human errors.


Changes Reflected in Real Time

Any edit or deletion:

  • Reflects immediately in the history
  • Updates the account balance
  • Adjusts the budget if applicable

There are no extra steps or hidden confirmations.


Best Practices

  • Review your transactions frequently
  • Correct errors as soon as you detect them
  • Don’t be afraid to edit or delete

Dialcash is made to adapt to you, not to punish you for making mistakes.


Summary

  • You can access the details of any transaction with a tap
  • Editing and deleting are safe actions
  • The system adjusts automatically

Controlling your money also means being able to correct it.
