Request: balance --related
I'd like to quickly see where my Assets are going. One way to do this is:
# monthly breakdown of in & out of money
hledger bal Liabilities Income Expenses --monthly
Wouldn't a cleaner way be to do: bal Assets --related? That is, show me the balance for accounts that transfer in/out of Assets, based on transactions only involving Assets (like reg --related). This is better because:
- you don't see Liabilities → Expenses transactions (useful for, say, you bought a laptop with a credit card on 0% interest to be paid over 12 months).
- you don't see Income → Expenses transactions (useful for, say, not caring about deductions of your employer, but still being able to file them as expenses).
You can already do this via register --related, but that flag isn't available for balance.
