Does reckon support more complicated transactions like so?

Happy holidays @divansantana and thanks for your interest in reckon. Sorry about the delay getting back to you.

You mean you'd like to split a transaction into separate categories? Current it's not something that reckon supports, but it is something I've been thinking about adding.

Were you thinking you'd use this in interactive mode only? Or also in unattended mode?

@benprew no problem :) Happy holidays.

Yes split transaction into seperate categories. Would be nice in unattended mode.

Would be a nice to have. Otherwise reckon is working well for me, thanks!

Hey @divansantana , I looked into this a little more and the current unattended mode tokens format isn't well suited to splitting transactions. So, for now, I'll focus on splitting transactions when doing manual input.
