In Commander Finance, the Transactions page lists every transaction in your workspace. A filter bar, a search box, and a running summary strip narrow the list to the transactions you care about. See Transactions for what each transaction holds.

​
Filtering the list

Click + Filter in the toolbar to open the filter bar; the button reads − Filter while the bar is open. You can filter by four fields:
  • Date range—a From and To pair. Commander caps the From date at your current To date and floors the To date at your current From date, so the range can’t invert.
  • Account—one or more accounts.
  • Budget Line—one or more budget lines, plus a None option matching transactions you haven’t categorized yet.
  • Merchant—one or more merchants, plus a None option matching transactions with no linked merchant.
Each active filter appears as a chip below the toolbar. Remove a single chip with its ×, or reset everything with Clear filters. Filtering runs on the server, so it narrows your entire transaction history—not just the rows already on screen—and the list reloads from the first page each time you change a filter.

​
Searching the loaded rows

The search box, labeled Search loaded transactions..., matches the merchant name, the name shown in the list, and the original description from your bank—so a search for coffee finds both a merchant named Blue Bottle Coffee and a bank line that reads SQ *COFFEE CART. Search covers loaded rows only, because Commander has no server-side transaction text search. When nothing matches what’s loaded, the list reads No matches in the N transactions loaded so far and offers two actions:
  • Search more transactions—pulls the next batch into the search scope, for when the match sits further back in your history.
  • Clear search—exits the search and restores the full list.

​
Reading the summary strip

Above the list, a strip sums the transactions currently shown into three figures:
  • In—the total of positive amounts, money coming in.
  • Out—the total of negative amounts, money going out.
  • Net—In plus Out.
The strip sums exactly what’s on screen, and a caption names that scope so the totals never mislead: All 42 transactions when every transaction is loaded, or First 50 of 213 transactions when the server holds more than are loaded. While you’re searching, the caption reflects the matched rows instead.

​
Date groups

When the list is sorted by date—the default—transactions group under headers such as Today, Yesterday, or a specific date like June 15. Sorting by any other column shows a flat list with no date headers. On phones the header stays pinned to the top of the screen as you scroll its group; on wider screens it sits inline above its transactions.

​
Deleting a transaction from the list

On a touch device, swipe a transaction row left and confirm to delete it. Swiping is a shortcut for deletion only—every action, delete included, is also available from the transaction’s detail page, which you open by tapping the row.
