Tracking Expenses

I've been playing more and more with sort by tag and one of the things I came up with was elegant in its simplicity.

I have a list called Expenses, and a shortcut which allows me to quickly track reimbursable expenses for tracking and reporting. The format is simple:

2019-08-02 :oncoming_taxi: $70.00

I modified the script to add a note tag with #month where the month is January, February, etc. of when the expense occurred. Then I set up the list to show by sort tag > alphabet. That way all my expenses automatically get separated by month.

Just thought I'd share a different use case.

My previous app (no longer in app store) had an extra field for this. Maybe GoodTask can add it. (See green arrow)
