The recurring expenses feature is a fantastic "set and forget" time saver for all those expenses that incur a regular cost over a regular time period (e.g. rent, phone, internet).
1) To set up a recurring expense, go to Deductions > Recurring expenses
2) Click New recurring expense
3) A panel slides out from the right. Fill in the expense details, including amount, Include GST, Start date*, cadence, category, vendor and description
(*See NOTES below for more info regarding the start date)
4) Click Save to set active straight away
NOTES:
Recurring expenses CAN be backdated. If you choose a start date in the past, Rounded will automatically create expense records from the start date to the current date at the cadence chosen once the recurring expense is activated.
Changing a recurring expense template is NOT retrospective. Any expense records created before a change is made will not reflect that change. Any subsequent records created will reflect that change.
Currently, a recurring expense cannot be linked to a bank feeds transaction. Either set up a recurring expense OR reconcile it from the bank feeds. Doing both will result in duplicate records.
Remember to download the Rounded mobile app!
