TLDR: Is there s a “right” way to manually add a balance for a (currently broken) automated account and make sure that balance appears in Hello, Money?
Full Story: One of my automated accounts has been broken for over a month and as a stop gap I’d like to manually update the balance and make sure that balance appears in my Hello, Money email.
I know I can manually update the balance by directly adding a row to the spreadsheet, but this doesn’t show up in Hello, Money.
Alternatively, I can create a new manual account and use tiller console to track it - this would show up in hello, money but would also create a duplicate account.
Definitely need an incorporation of Manual Accounts in Hello, Money. Without them, it’s an incomplete picture of my money overview which is the point of Hello, Money. Personally, I can’t use it at all until that’s added.
I’ve been struggling with this myself for a Credit Union connection that stopped working.
I can update in my sheet manually (balance history hidden sheet), but not in the console where the Hello, Money email pulls data from. I’ve clicked through all the articles and this one about the new CSV import feature is as close as I could find. Parsing through this text and linking out to the one about updating a balance here, you can update a balance in the console for a manual account, but not for an automated one. Yet.
I’m just relying on a net worth sheet I added to my main file for now.
