Introducing Multi-File Support in Beancount
Many of our customers have been asking us how to add multiple files to one ledger since February. They need the file structure to archive or categorize transactions. So, finally, after a couple of months of work, we are glad to announce the feature is released for free.
Here is how to use it:
File > create a new file
Go to the file editor tab on the left navigation sidebar. And then, follow the "File" dropdown and click "Create a new file".
Name your new file
Give your file a valid filename and save it. All filenames must be ended with ".bean".
Include the file
Here is a crucial step, you have to include the newly-created file in main.bean.
For example, if you added stock.bean, then specify include "stock.bean" in main.bean.
Refresh and navigate to file
Refresh the page, and you will see the file appears in the "File" dropdown.
Rename or delete the file
When navigated to the file, you could rename or delete it in the "Edit" dropdown.
