## What
When deleting a transaction that belongs to a **manual**
(non-bank-connected) account, the user can now opt to update the
account's **current balance** for today, so it stays accurate without
re-syncing.
- Deleting an **expense** (amount < 0) → balance **increases** by the
amount.
- Deleting **income** (amount > 0) → balance **decreases** by the
amount.
- Formula: `new_balance = current_balance − transaction.amount`. If
today has no balance row, it's seeded from the latest known balance.
- Available for **single delete** and **bulk delete** (a checkbox in the
confirmation dialog).
- Connected accounts are never touched — their balances come from bank
sync.
- On the account page, the balance display refreshes automatically after
the delete (no page reload).
## How
- New `ManualBalanceAdjuster` service; `TransactionController@destroy`
calls it when the request carries `update_balance` and the account is
manual.
- Frontend `transactionSyncService.delete/deleteMany` accept an
`updateBalance` option; both delete dialogs show the checkbox only when
a manual account is affected.
- `TransactionList` gains an `onBalanceUpdated` callback;
`Accounts/Show` uses it to bump the balance chart's refresh key.
- Added `banking_connection_id` to the accounts payload (transactions,
budgets, and the shared Inertia props feeding accounts/show) so the
frontend can identify manual accounts.

## Summary
Adds nested categories (parent → child, up to **3 levels**) across the
app. Children inherit their parent's type and cashflow direction, and
every category selector now renders the hierarchy as an indented tree.
Gated behind the `CategoryTree` Pennant flag (off by default).
## Backend
- **Migration**: nullable self-referencing `parent_id`; uniqueness
scoped per-parent via a `parent_unique_marker` virtual column (root
names stay unique). New composite unique created before dropping the old
one so the `user_id` FK keeps a supporting index.
- **`CategoryTree` service**: descendant/ancestor resolution, depth &
cycle checks, type cascade, subtree deletion.
- **Validation**: depth limit, cycle prevention, inherited + locked
child type.
- **Delete strategies**: reparent (default), promote to root, or cascade
(uncategorizes affected transactions).
- **Transaction filter** expands a selected parent to its descendants.
- **Cashflow Sankey & breakdown** roll up to top-level parents with
click-to-drill (children + a parent "direct" node).
- **Budgets** tracking a parent also count their children's
transactions.
- **Unified** the frontend category query behind
`Category::forDisplay()` / `FRONTEND_COLUMNS` (8 call sites) so every
selector receives the full Category shape, including `parent_id`.
## Frontend
- New `category-tree.ts` helpers (build/flatten/descendants/path,
tree-aware selection toggle + tri-state).
- **Settings page**: indented tree, sortable by name/color/type
(siblings sorted, hierarchy preserved), parent picker, delete-strategy
dialog.
- **Combobox** (transaction table cell + edit/create modal + parent
picker): indented tree, search keeps matches with their ancestors.
- **Transaction filter**: indented tree, tri-state cascading selection
(parent ↔ children), themed checkboxes, selected branches float to top
on open, ancestor-aware search.
- **Categorizer palette** and **budget multi-select**: same indented
tree + ancestor-aware search.
- **Sankey**: click a parent node to drill into its children, with
breadcrumb.
- Pennant `CategoryTree` flag gates the parent UI.
## Tests
- Pest: model/validation, delete strategies, filter expansion, cashflow
rollup/drill, budget child inclusion.
- Vitest: tree-aware selection logic.
- All green; Pint / ESLint / Prettier clean.
## Rollout
Flag is off by default — enable per user with:
\`\`\`
php artisan feature:enable "App\\Features\\CategoryTree" you@example.com
\`\`\`
## What
The "public banks + user's own banks" query was repeated in **5
controllers** (Transaction ×2, Settings/Bank, Budget, Cashflow,
Onboarding).
New `Bank::availableForUser($user)` scope; all 5 sites use it.
Bonus: the Onboarding variant had no `where()` grouping around
`whereNull/orWhere` — harmless today (no other constraints) but a latent
precedence bug. The scope always groups.
## Stats
- **-31 / +24 lines**, 5 call sites → 1 definition
## Checks
- `php artisan test
--filter="Bank|Transaction|Budget|Cashflow|Onboarding"` — 612 passed
(2707 assertions), 1 skipped
- `vendor/bin/pint --dirty` — pass
Part of duplication-removal series (#475–#479).
## What
Show the debtor and creditor names (when present) on the categorization
page (`/transactions/categorize`).
## Changes
- `TransactionController@categorize`: select `creditor_name` and
`debtor_name` — they were never sent to the frontend.
- `categorizer-card.tsx`: render Creditor/Debtor rows below the account
when present, using the same i18n labels as the transaction columns.
- `TransactionTest`: assert both names are exposed on the categorize
page.
## Testing
- `php artisan test --filter="debtor and creditor"` — passes.
- pint, format, lint clean.
## Summary
- add creditor/debtor fields to transactions with raw_data backfill
- store counterparties on bank sync and CSV/XLS imports
- add creditor/debtor filters plus hidden table columns
## Tests
- php artisan test --compact tests/Feature/LocalizationTest.php
tests/Feature/OpenBanking/TransactionSyncServiceTest.php
tests/Feature/TransactionFilterTest.php
- npm test -- resources/js/lib/file-parser.test.ts --run
- vendor/bin/pint --dirty --format agent
Note: `npm run types` still has pre-existing unrelated errors; no
creditor/debtor/import-related errors remained in filtered output.

## Problem
The categorizer was reading transactions exclusively from the browser's
IndexedDB (Dexie), which is only populated via an on-demand sync
triggered from the import drawer. When an account was deleted
(soft-deleting all its transactions), those transactions remained in the
local IndexedDB and kept appearing in the categorizer on subsequent
visits.
## Solution
- **`TransactionController::categorize()`** now queries uncategorized
transactions directly from the database (`WHERE category_id IS NULL`)
with their account and bank eager-loaded, and passes them as an Inertia
prop alongside the existing `categories`, `accounts`, `banks`, and
`labels`.
- **`categorize.tsx`** drops all Dexie/`useLiveQuery` dependencies. The
transaction list now comes from the Inertia prop; client-side decryption
runs once on mount (the encryption key remains client-side only — the
server never sees it). Category assignment
(`transactionSyncService.update()`) is unchanged.
## Tests
Added 5 new feature tests covering:
- Categorize page is accessible to authenticated users and includes the
`transactions` prop
- Only uncategorized transactions are returned
- Transactions from deleted accounts are excluded
- Transactions from other users are not visible
- Guests are redirected to login
## Summary
- **Server-side filtering/sorting/search**: With encryption removed, all
transaction filtering, sorting, and full-text search (LIKE on
description + notes) now happens via SQL queries instead of client-side
IndexedDB with decryption
- **Cursor pagination**: Transactions are returned with cursor-based
pagination (default 50 per page, "Load More" pattern) instead of loading
all into IndexedDB
- **Removed IndexedDB dependency**: The main transactions page no longer
depends on Dexie/IndexedDB for data or sync — other pages (categorize,
accounts/show, budgets/show) are unaffected and will be migrated
separately
## Changes
| File | Change |
|------|--------|
| `app/Models/Transaction.php` | Added `scopeApplyFilters` query scope |
| `app/Http/Requests/IndexTransactionRequest.php` | New form request for
filter validation |
| `app/Http/Controllers/TransactionController.php` | Server-filtered
cursor-paginated index, refactored bulkUpdate to reuse scope |
| `resources/js/pages/transactions/index.tsx` | Major rewrite —
server-driven filtering, sorting, pagination via `router.visit()` |
| `resources/js/components/transactions/transaction-filters.tsx` |
Search always enabled (removed encryption key dependency) |
| `resources/js/types/transaction.ts` | Added `ServerTransaction` type |
| `resources/js/contexts/sync-context.tsx` | Simplified — removed
transaction sync service |
| `tests/Feature/TransactionFilterTest.php` | 20 new Pest tests for all
filter scenarios |
## Test plan
- [x] Run `php artisan test` — all 523+ tests pass
- [x] Navigate to `/transactions` — paginated results load from server
- [x] Apply each filter type (date, amount, category, account, label,
search) and verify server round-trip
- [x] Test "uncategorized" category filter
- [x] Test combined filters
- [x] Test sorting by date, amount, description (ascending/descending)
- [x] Test "Load More" button for cursor pagination
- [x] Test bulk operations (select some → update, select all filtered →
update)
- [x] Verify URL persistence (refresh page with filters in URL)
- [x] Test search on both description and notes fields
## Summary
- Store account names in plaintext instead of encrypting them
client-side. Encryption remains only for transaction descriptions and
notes.
- Existing encrypted account names are silently migrated when the user
unlocks their encryption key, via a new `useDecryptAccountNames` hook
that calls API endpoints to update each account.
- New `AccountName` component handles rendering both encrypted (legacy)
and plaintext accounts across the app.
## Test plan
- [x] Create a new account — name should be stored in plaintext
(`encrypted = false`, `name_iv = null`)
- [x] Unlock encryption key with existing encrypted accounts — they
should auto-migrate silently
- [x] After migration, verify accounts show `encrypted = false` in DB
and names are readable plaintext
- [x] Edit a migrated account — should work without encryption
- [x] Verify all account name displays work across dashboard, account
details, transactions, settings
## Summary
- Fixes automation rules not applying labels when creating transactions
manually or via CSV import
- Eager-loads the `labels` relationship on automation rules in both
`TransactionController` and `HandleInertiaRequests`
- Syncs `label_ids` on the transaction `store` endpoint (was accepted
but never persisted)
- Passes `automationRules` prop through the full component chain:
`index.tsx` → `TransactionActionsMenu` → `ImportTransactionsDrawer`, and
`index.tsx` → `EditTransactionDialog`
- Passes `automationRules` as the missing 5th argument to
`reEvaluateAll()`
Closes#61
## Test plan
- [x] Existing feature tests pass (`php artisan test
--filter=Transaction`, `--filter=AutomationRule`)
- [x] Pint, ESLint, and Prettier all pass
- [x] Manually verify: create a transaction matching an automation rule
with labels → labels are applied
- [x] Manually verify: import CSV with transactions matching rules with
labels → labels are applied
- [x] Manually verify: "Re-evaluate All" applies labels from matched
rules
## Summary
- Added label update support to the single transaction `update()`
endpoint
- Previously, labels could only be updated via the bulk update endpoint
- Now both endpoints support label updates with consistent behavior
## Changes
- **UpdateTransactionRequest**: Added `label_ids` validation (array of
UUIDs that must belong to user)
- **TransactionController@update**: Now handles label updates alongside
other attributes
- Syncs labels when `label_ids` is provided
- Reloads labels relationship for fresh data in events
- Fires single `updated` event after all changes
- **AssignTransactionToBudget listener**: Ensures labels are loaded
fresh after queue serialization
- **Tests**: Added 6 comprehensive tests covering all label update
scenarios
## Behavior
- **Don't send `label_ids`** → labels unchanged (partial update)
- **Send `label_ids: []`** → removes all labels
- **Send `label_ids: [uuid1, uuid2]`** → replaces labels with these
## Testing
When labels are updated, the `TransactionUpdated` event fires and the
transaction is automatically assigned to matching budgets (via queued
listener).
All tests pass (29 tests, 134 assertions).
Fixes the issue where transactions wouldn't appear in budget after
adding a matching label via the single transaction update endpoint.
This PR simplifies the IndexedDB synchronization mechanism by removing
individual sync controllers and services, and instead using Inertia.js
shared props to provide data globally across the application.
## Benefits
1. **Simplified Architecture**: Removed complex sync logic for
static/semi-static data (accounts, categories, banks, labels, automation
rules)
2. **Better Performance**: Data is now shared via Inertia props,
eliminating unnecessary API calls and IndexedDB operations
3. **Reduced Complexity**: Significantly reduced codebase size (~2000
lines removed)
4. **Better UX**: Data is immediately available on page load without
waiting for sync operations
5. **Maintainability**: Fewer moving parts means easier to maintain and
debug
## Migration Notes
- Transaction syncing still uses IndexedDB for offline support
- All other data (accounts, categories, banks, labels, automation rules)
is now fetched via Inertia shared props
- Components automatically receive updated data on navigation without
manual sync operations
## Summary
Add a labeling system for transactions that differs from categories in
that labels are ephemeral and created on-the-fly when assigned (no
pre-creation required). A transaction can have multiple labels
(many-to-many relationship), and labels can be used for filtering in the
transaction table and as actions in automation rules.
