Write it as you would tell a colleague.
A short sentence is enough to begin. “Paid €85 cash for materials.” The draft lets you check and complete the details.

When capture needs help
Missing or ambiguous information is yours to complete. A draft is not included in totals. Saving the record does not make a payment.
Explore manual entry →What text capture does
You write to the assistant the way you would text a friend. It picks out the amount, the currency, whether it is money in or out, a likely category, the account and the date, and shows them as a draft. You correct anything that is wrong and confirm. One message can hold several items, and the same chat also takes reminders, things to remember and habit check-ins.
A concrete example
“Taxi 3,500 XOF cash, and got paid 40,000 by Awa via mobile money.” The assistant drafts an expense of 3,500 XOF under Transport from your cash account, and an income of 40,000 XOF to your mobile money account. If it is not sure about the account, it asks. You confirm both, and the monthly overview updates.
Who it suits
People who record things on the go and would rather type one line than open a form: cash spenders, mobile money users, freelancers noting a client payment between two meetings, anyone keeping a budget without a bank connection.
Limits
The assistant reads what you write; it cannot check a payment actually happened. A vague message (“spent some on stuff”) gives a vague draft, so include at least an amount. Currencies are never converted silently: each total stays in its own currency.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to follow a format?
No. “85 cash materials” works as well as a full sentence. The more detail you give, the fewer fields you have to fix.
Can I write in French?
Yes. The assistant understands English and French, including mixed messages.
What happens if it gets the category wrong?
Change it on the draft before confirming. You can also edit a saved record later.
