Venmo usage question:
I like to use the technique of categorizing transfers between two accounts I use with Tiller as “Transfer” and anything I transfer to an account/accounting system I don’t pull into Tiller as “External Transfer.” This makes it easier to have a zero check sum value when I am reconciling by filtering on Transfer or hiding Transfer transactions.
I recently discovered that Venmo was integrated through Yodlee and tried it out. (I previously have used the CSV importer.) However, it doesn’t seem to add an entry under my Venmo account for any of my transfers of money out of Venmo to a bank account. This creates a discrepancy with my bank account which does list the transfer as a net positive.
Is this expected behavior for the Venmo scrapper? Is there a way to include those transfers?
If not, it seems to me there are two options.
a) Delete the transfer transaction on the bank side. (con: harder to reconcile the bank account)
b) Add a manual transaction for each transfer on the Venmo side. (con: time and effort to stay on top of)
For those that like the double entry… what do you do?
Thanks!
