The number of years you store are only limited by the number of rows in Excel and how many transactions you have per year. There are over a million rows in Excel. So the short answer is 'virtually unlimited'. |
Why should I use your workbook vs. just Mint or Quickbooks? My short answer is, use them both! Mint is a great way to collect all of your information using just one login, however, many Mint users still like to download their transactions into Excel. This can be for a variety of reasons. One reason is that some major credit card companies, local banks and credit unions are not 'signed up' with Mint and as a result, in order to get all of you transactions in one place, they download mint along with the other sources into Excel. One of the XLYourFinance users told me they kept their Mint account because it did such a nice job of gathering their information from all of their credit cards and bank accounts which they then exported to Excel and posted into their xlyourfinances workbook. As a result of this, we have created a "Mint" button on the import screen. This takes the mint downloaded transactions and puts them into the xlyourfinances format with one click. Quickbooks is accounting software whose main focus is small business. If you have a small business, it is absolutely necessary for you to have accounting software designed for your business needs. However, anyone who tries to manage their personal finances using accounting software realizes it can be confusing to use and take you through unnecessary steps trying to manage common issues related to personal finance because it is designed for business. xlyourfinances workbook is unique because it is designed for one purpose...personal finance. Is it legal to be selling a Microsoft Excel* spreadsheet? From Microsoft’s website: "Yes. The spreadsheet or database must be created using a legitimate, licensed copy of a Microsoft product that is designed to create spreadsheets and databases. It must be used by other people who own a legitimate, licensed copy of that Microsoft product." |
