Bills: log the actual payment, history, and undo

Bills are your fixed payments: rent, loan payments, utilities. Here's how to create them, mark them as paid with the actual amount and date, review your history by month, and undo a payment.

What you'll get

Stay on top of your fixed monthly payments and have your budget use what you actually paid, not just what you planned.

Requirements
  • Be signed in and online: creating bills, marking them as paid, and undoing payments all require internet.
  • Have created at least one bill in Settings.

A bill is a fixed payment that repeats every month: rent, a loan payment, electricity, internet. Monuvia subtracts them from your budget, so your available amount for the week already accounts for them. Marking a bill as paid is mainly for your own tracking: knowing what's left to pay this month and when you paid it.

#Create a bill (in Settings)

  1. Go to Settings and scroll down to the "Bills" section.
  2. Under "Name," type something like "Rent."
  3. Under "Amount," enter the usual amount, and under "Due day," the day of the month it's due (1 to 31).
  4. Tap "Add bill."
Note. If a bill no longer applies but you don't want to delete its history, edit it and turn off "Active (counts in your budget)": it becomes paused and stops being subtracted, but keeps its payments.

#Mark a bill as paid

Each month, when you pay, log it on the Bills screen with the actual amount and date.

Bills: how many you've paid so far and the status of each one.
  1. Open Bills (/obligaciones). At the top you'll see "Paid X of Y" and the month's total.
  2. Check that the month selected in the month row is the right one.
  3. On the bill you paid, tap "Mark as paid."
  4. "Amount paid" is already filled in with the planned amount; change it if you paid a different amount.
  5. "Payment date" defaults to today; adjust it if you paid on a different day.
  6. Tap "Save."

The bill will then show something like "Paid on Sep 5 · $250.00." If you paid a different amount than planned, you'll also see "(planned $…)" so the adjustment is clear.

Keep in mind. If you pay a different amount than planned, the budget uses what you paid: paying less frees up the difference, and paying more subtracts it. That's why it's best to enter the actual amount instead of always leaving the planned one.

#History by month

Using the month row at the top, you can move to any month of the year to see what you paid. Active bills always appear; a paused one shows up in a month only if it had a payment that month. Each row shows its status: "Pending," "Overdue," or "Paid on … · $…."

#Undo a payment

If you marked a payment by mistake, you can delete it and the bill goes back to pending.

  1. In Bills, go to the month of the payment.
  2. On the already-paid bill, tap "Undo."
  3. Confirm in the prompt that appears.
Note. Undoing only deletes that one payment for that month; the bill still exists. To remove the bill entirely (and its whole payment history), do it from Settings.

Common problems

I don't see my bills on the screen, just a message telling me to add them.
You haven't created any yet. Go to Settings, the "Bills" section, and use "Add bill." They'll then appear in /obligaciones.
I marked the wrong bill as paid.
In the right month, tap "Undo" on that bill and confirm. Then mark the correct one with "Mark as paid."
It says that bill is already marked as paid this month.
Each bill allows only one payment per month. If the amount or date is wrong, tap "Undo" and mark it again with the correct details.
I paid less than planned—do I need to do anything else?
No. Just enter the actual amount in "Amount paid," and the budget adjusts on its own and frees up the difference for you.
