Easily remove multiple incomes and costs from a project in a few clicks.

Whether in the Monthly or Income & Costs view you can select what you would like to remove using the checkboxes, which will reveal the option to remove them.

If you are looking to remove a large number of entries, you can use the shift click shortcut to select many at once. Simply select the first entry you want to remove, hold down shift and click the last entry. This will select all entries between the two.

Any placeholders will be fully deleted, while any invoices, bills or transactions will be returned to the relevant chart of account category in the main cash flow.

View a monthly breakdown of project incomes and costs

You now have the ability to toggle between an income & costs view and a new monthly view of incomes and costs within a project.

This option when selected, groups income and costs in a monthly breakdown to allow you to better understand and manage the monthly fluctuations of a project's cash flow.

Easily add invoices, bills and bank transactions directly to a project without the need of adding a placeholder first.

This allows you to add invoices, bills or bank transactions which you didn’t plan for but have happened.

Or, you might have created one placeholder initially which is now associated with multiple invoices, bills or bank transactions. This update allows adding those invoices, bills or bank transactions without the need of adding other placeholders first.

Couple of quality of life improvements.

Collapsible Project sections

Each individual project section can be collapsed and expanded as needed. So if for example, you don't need to see the Completed projects, you can hide these from view easily.

Alphabetical ordering of budgets

When expanding an account in the cash flow table, budgets will be shown in alphabetical order. Previously these were shown in the order they were added.

Any questions or feedback just drop us a message.

Replacement page: Improved layout

With a 2 column layout, it's much easier to compare what is being replaced with what is being chosen to replace it.

Replacement page: Suggestions & tips

When replacing a placeholder, Float will now suggest transactions that are closest to the value and/or date of the placeholder.

If the transaction you need isn't shown we've added some searching tips so you know exactly what you can search for.

Project page: Improved placeholder adding

The section for adding a placeholder now expands and collapses inline so as not to hide the list of already added placeholders. Some handy keyboard shortcuts have been added, Enter ⏎ to create a placeholder and esc to collapse the section.

If you have any questions or feedback please let us know.

Cheers,

Add regular incomes or costs to a project using the "repeats monthly" and "repeats weekly" options.

For example, repeats every 2 weeks for 10 occurrences will create 10 placeholders each 2 weeks apart

These placeholders can then be individually edited and replaced via the existing edit and replace options.

Edit placeholders and invoices/bills within a project

The date, reference and amount of a placeholder are now editable, along with the expected date of an invoice or bill.

Whether updating an overdue date or changing an amount, clicking the edit button on the right-hand side of the row will allow the details to be updated.

The Projects section on the cash flow tab now shows when projects have overdue items:

Hovering over the red-highlighted projects shows how many overdue items you need to resolve to get an accurate project (& company!) cash flow.

The Projects section on the cash flow tab is now collapsable, just like Cash In and Cash Out.

Thanks to everyone who provided us feedback. Get in touch via chat if you have any suggestions, ideas, or feedback.

If you still don't see the new Projects section, hold tight! You'll see it in early-2023.

Hi there,

We've been improving Float projects with lots of little changes recently. Here's a rundown:

Project page: Net Cash Movement widget

This widget gives you a glanceable view of the net cash movement for a project.

Project Overview page: Net cash movement amount

We're also showing the net cash movement amount in the rows on the project overview page, so you can quickly glance to see how each project is doing:

Visual improvements

We've added icons to all the major types of 'thing', with a handy icon if something is overdue.

Figures are now easier to compare as we've changed fonts. No more eye-straining to see if $1111 is the same magnitude as $8888 🧐. We've also found a way of showing the precise values, but de-emphasised

As ever, feedback always appreciated. What would you like to see in Projects? Drop me a message.

Best wishes

Alastair, Head of Product
