Bug Description
Binary package hint: homebank
Hi,
I have just started using Homebank yesterday (before that I was using "Grisbi").
Overall I love Homebank, and I am very glad that it exists, since Grisbi is... well, dead. Not officially so... but certianly so in practice, after yeaaars that saw zero development.
But, I notice that there is one mega, super important yet basic/essential functionality that homebank doesn't have (but Grisbi does) : "ventilating" (not sure if that's the right English term... sorry).
That is, say I go to the supermarket, I spend 100 Euros:
- 50 Euros for food
- 10 Euros for an oil filter for the car
- 20 Euros for some piece of clothe
- 20 Euros for blan DVD's for the computer
Currently, ghomebank does not allow to break things down... it forces me to put the entirety of the 100 Euros into one single category... despite all items obviously should go in very different categories (clothes, computing, and car). So, this makes reports/graphs meaningless/
I had a look at the "ToDo" list on Homebank's web site, and I saw many ideas of features, but surprinsgly I didn't see this one !
considering that you have not a lot of time to work on homebank, and given that this feature is so vital/important

This is a request already done 1 or 2 times and it is in my todolist for years, I should thinks about that... One day.
HomeBank purpose is to be simple, and easy to use whith just basic features. Grisbi, Gnucash, and other have that feature but this is not a sufficient reason
for me to implement it in HomeBank. In my thought for HomeBank, I try not to see what others have done, but think about logical and simple process for doing things.
There is more other important things to do before that. I will try to update my website with future plans asap.
Regards
Max.
