  • I have to click on every single Description in my transations because the only things I can see is: "Time to Pet..." "Online Transfer" 'Purchase Authorized" and I can't see the actual expense... How do we see more without clicking on it? In the tutorial, the view was different.

  • It seems that the add and edit bill are broken. They are displaying blank page every time I try to add or edit a bill. I already tried deleting and clearing my cache but to no avail. Also tried another browser mozilla firefox but still the problem occurs. I am using Chrome in Mac. I'm attaching a screenshot of the problem.

It's really a new bizarre complex and non-productive process for small businesses. Removing automation is somehow good for small businesses (your stated customer base)...???? What the app did is allow y…

  • WAVE is a great tool for businesses less than 2-3 years old. This fits with WAVE's business objectives and plans. The problem is your customers grow (99% of business owners want to grow their businesses) and WAVE isn't adding the services they need as they grow. This goal seems like a very limited value proposition to both your customers and yo…

    Bank connection suddenly started getting disconnected every time Wave tries to import transactions. It does get connected if I reconnect every time, but on the RBC side it keeps on asking me "Was that you?" and I have to answer "It was me" to let Wave reconnect again. It had never happened before until now.

    I finally found instructions for recording a starting balance for my accumulated depreciation ($2,500). It works fine as far as being reflected on the BS as a contra Asset account and my equity balance is correct but because the offsetting journal entry is "depreciation expense" it includes the $2,500 in my current P&L which incor…
