Recent Activity

Use the dashboard's recent activity area to confirm what changed recently and decide when to open the full transaction list.

Recent Activity is for quick review, not full bookkeeping. It helps you answer questions like “Did that transaction save?” or “What changed most recently?” without leaving Home.

Think of it as the dashboard’s short list of newest transaction activity, not as your full transaction workspace.

What it is good for #

  • confirming that a new transaction or edit was saved
  • checking the latest changes after a cleanup session
  • spotting something unexpected before it turns into a bigger problem

On Home, this list is intentionally short. It shows the newest transactions first so you can do a quick confidence check.

What this list is not trying to do #

Recent Activity is not trying to replace the full transaction page.

It is not where you go for:

  • long date ranges
  • serious filtering
  • broad search
  • exports
  • full account-by-account investigation

When to leave the dashboard #

Move into the Accounts area or the all-transactions view when you need filters, edits, splits, or transfer review.

The dashboard gives you the short version. The Transactions view gives you the working view.

A good rule for using it #

Use Recent Activity when you want to verify something quickly.

If you need more than a quick answer, leave Home and work from the full Transactions area instead.
