Transactions
The Transactions tab in creavio gives you a complete picture of every dollar flowing in and out of your business. Whether it's a client payment, a gear purchase, or a subscription fee, everything lives here.
Viewing Your Transactions
Navigate to Money > Transactions to see your full transaction history. By default, transactions are sorted by date with the most recent first. Use the filters at the top to narrow by:
- Date range — view a specific week, month, or custom period
- Type — income, expense, or transfer
- Category — gear, travel, software, client payments, and more
- Status — cleared, pending, or reconciled
Adding a Transaction Manually
Click + New Transaction and fill in the details:
- Select Income or Expense
- Enter the amount and date
- Choose a category (or create a custom one)
- Add a description or attach a receipt photo
- Link it to a specific client or project if applicable
Automatic Transactions
If you've connected a bank account via Plaid, transactions import automatically. creavio will suggest categories based on past behavior — just confirm or adjust.
Splitting Transactions
Need to split a single charge across categories? Click on any transaction, select Split, and allocate portions to different categories. This is especially useful for mixed-use purchases like a laptop used for both personal and business work.
Tips for Clean Books
- Categorize transactions weekly to avoid a backlog
- Attach receipts immediately — creavio stores them securely
- Use the search bar to find any transaction by description, amount, or client name
