Expense

Expense enables you to record the date, expense type, and the amount that you spent. A record
in Expense is called an “item.” You can sort your Expense items into categories or add other
information that you want to associate with the item.

To create an Expense item:

1. Press Option

and then press Menu

to access the Applications Launcher.

2. Tap the Expense icon

.

3. Enter the amount of the expense.

4. Tap the Expense type pick list and select a type from the list.

Note:

As soon as you select an expense type, your handheld saves the entry. If you don’t select
an expense type, it doesn’t save the entry.

Tip:

A quick way to create a new Expense item is to make sure that no Expense item is
selected in the Expense list, enter the first letter(s) of the expense type, and then enter
the numerical amount. This technique takes advantage of the automatic fill feature. See
the section that begins on page 128 for details.

Changing the date of an Expense item

Initially, Expense items appear with the date you enter them. You can use Expense to change the
date associated with any Expense item.
