Pitch: what problem are you trying to solve?

Today we have accounts split in two groups: For budget and Off-budget.
Sometime we might need to arrange accounts in different groups, for categorization or usage.

Groups account usages exemples:

• Separating check accounts and saving accounts
• Separating accounts owners
• Grouping check account and its credit card account attached to it: this way I know I should make sure my check account doesn't have negative balance before credit card debt being paid automatically every month.

Describe your ideal solution to this problem

Being able to arrange accounts into specifics group name for personal usage

I recently moved away from using Quicken for years and this is the one feature I miss. It was very helpful to have all my credit cards grouped, bank accounts grouped, investments grouped, etc. While Quicken for Mac was limited in the ability to truly customize it, the view is still much cleaner than Actual Budget when adding a lot of accounts (especially when it’s both me and my wife).

Being able to create parent categories similar to how the budget categories work would be SUPER helpful. Thanks for listening.
