Step 1

Choose Budget

  1. Budget is the form's income label
  2. Use a compatible Income category
  3. Example: thirty thousand salary

Choose Budget when recording income such as salary or a reimbursement.

Use a compatible Income category. This example records thirty thousand rupees for October salary.

Step 2

Check currency and receipt date

  1. Enter the real amount received
  2. Use the actual date
  3. This is not a monthly replacement setting

Enter the real amount received in the displayed currency and use its actual transaction date.

A Budget transaction adds income to the month; it does not replace an earlier monthly amount.

Step 3

Keep a recognizable note

  1. Use October salary for this sample
  2. Subscription and reminders are optional
  3. Do not repeat the same receipt

Use a recognizable note such as October salary.

Do not record the same salary twice simply to adjust a monthly target; another save would add another income entry.

Step 4

Review and save once

  1. Check the final summary
  2. Use Save, or Cancel to leave it unsaved
  3. Complete an offered access unlock

Read the You're adding summary before recording this income receipt. Check the amount, category and date.

Tap Save once. If the manual-saving access offer appears, use a completed reward or regular Premium access; AI Premium and cloud consent are separate.

Cancel leaves the form unsaved. Pennie records transactions; it does not send money through your bank.

Step 5

Check the saved transaction

  1. Open Transactions
  2. Check the recorded amount and details
  3. Do not enter the same movement twice

Check the Budget row in the correct month after saving.

The verified example contains one thirty-thousand-rupee income transaction, not an automatic bank transfer.

Correct an existing entry through Edit instead of adding a duplicate.
