Income can be said to Galka too

It arrived — say it that way. Do not make her guess “out or in”.

If money came in, say so. When the meaning is muddy, Galka asks “out or in?” — she does not wink and write.

Log the first purchase

Not coffee. Payday.

Ledger meaning

Salary · 64 000CardThis is income. Record it?

  1. 1

    Name the pay-in with pay-in words

    “Salary”, “advance”, “freelance”, “repaid” are income anchors. A bare “2000” with no direction asks for the sign.

  2. 2

    Check the draft

    Amount, currency, account. If Galka treated it as a spend, do not confirm.

  3. 3

    Only then the journal

    Same as a spend: the till stays quiet until “yes”. Wrong sign after a save — reverse, not an eraser.

Salary and advance

“Got paid 64 000 onto the card” and “advance 12 000” go into the same journal as coffee. The category is income — not “other with a plus in your head.”

Side work and another currency

“Freelance 300 euros” stays euros on the row. The nest can be in rubles or som: the rate is taken at confirmation time, not as a market forecast.

A debt repaid — not “just sending a friend money”

“They repaid 2000” is income. “Transfer to a friend 50$” without your own pockets is a spend, not a move between your accounts. Between your own: “from card to cash 5000”.

When the meaning is unclear

No income anchor and no clear spend — Galka asks “out or in?”. She is not allowed to guess the direction in silence.

About the sign of the entry

Income and spends in different journals?

No. One journal per chat. The row sign differs.

Card-to-card move — is that salary?

No. “From card to cash” is a move. The till does not grow.

What if she logged a spend instead of pay?

Before “yes”, rewrite. After — reverse and a new income phrase.

Freelance in euros with a nest in som?

Yes. The row stays in euros; the nest total uses the accounting currency at the rate when you saved.
