Link repayments to outgoing transactions

[alexs (Alex Sherwood)]

So…Zander has confirmed that the plan is to link repayments to transaction records & to track who’s paid you back -

Bill Splitting 1

Amazing suggestions everyone! Thank you @terryharman, @SladdinCJ, @mj84, and @Avishai I can confirm that tracking who’s paid you back, as well as nested transactions (though how we display them is still up in the air), are very much on our roadmap and an integral part of the feature. @sladdincj to verify, if you create a request/bill split with someone who has Monzo, it won’t function through an external link, they will be notified and pay you back in app. @avishai this one is slightly more c…

And Hugo has acknowledged that repayments need to be credited to Categories & therefore Targets here -

Incoming payment categorisation

@Peri.thompson

if we split the bill the outgoing transaction would only take the percentage of the payment from my budget instead of the whole amount.

I’m not sure that I’d want to reduce my transaction amount, based on the outstanding payment that’s owed to me by a friend, until I’d received that repayment

Since that repayment could only be made next month, for example, wouldn’t that impact your Targets / balance etc. in the meantime & suggest that you have more money to spend, than you have in your account?
