Especially with things like PTA, I always wonder what someone's workflow looks like. Personally, I write my own scripts to spit out the 3 or 4 reports I most frequently use exactly the way I want it. This is trivial to do with Beancount *since it is (also) a library *for processing your journal.
Investor <https://github.com/redstreet/fava_investor> for example, has a few reports that I use to various degrees. See the bottom of the README here <https://github.com/redstreet/fava_investor/blob/main/fava_investor/modules/assetalloc_class/README.md> for an asset allocation example, which for me is the base report I use, on top of which I have a bit of scripting to figure out net worth, change in net worth across time, what the market did across time, etc. In addition, I also use Fava's web frontend to both give me a quick balances overview, see net worth over time graphically (although as Chary pointed out, there's no indication of why net worth changed), and chase down answers to quick, one-time questions and such. Hope that helps. On Monday, March 25, 2024 at 3:51:22 PM UTC-7 [email protected] wrote: > I'm new to beancount (but not to PTA, though rusty).
