About Expenses

Expenses is an Emacs package to keep records of your expenses and view expenses by given date/month/months/year. Expenses could be filtered by one or more categories. It saves the expenses in an org-table inside an org file. For each month, a separate org file is created with the year and month as a prefix to the file names.

It uses the org-table formulas to calculate expenses for the given period.

Expenses is available in MELPA.
