Twitter and finance

In previous posts, we talked about our service and showed how it can be used to form invoices and acts .

One of our main goals is to simplify data entry about our income and expenses. For example, using twitter.

I think it’s not worth talking about the growing popularity of this social network. At the moment, according to Yandex, the number of Russian-speaking Twitter users is 186,466. There are a huge number of clients for Twitter, including mobile devices. And we decided that it would be nice to combine the counting of specie and writing short messages.

Connecting a twitter account to Finobox


In order for Finobox to learn about your twitter account, you need to notify our specially trained bot - finobot (phinobo t , we left finobox for news)

For this bot you need to "fold". We write

follow finobot

in your twitter and get a response message with the activation code and link:


By default, all payments fall into the "Expenses". But you can assign any other panel in the management of twitter-accounts .



How to write messages


You can enter income and expenses using direct (direct) messages addressed to finobot:

d finobot amount description

Attention! If you write a message from the direct messages page and select finobot from the mailing list, it means that Twitter has already added the “d finobot” control line to the beginning of the message, it is not necessary to duplicate it.

For example:

d finobot 150 ice cream, 480 flowers

You can specify the name of the recipient using the "dog" (@):

d finobot 150 ice cream @ children, 480 flowers @ babe

Payments can be assigned tags:

d finobot 150 ice cream @ children # sweets, 480 flowers @ babe # blondes # investments



Also in the message you can specify the panel where the payments will fall
d finobot 150 ice cream @ children, 480 flowers @ woman < Rest

You can connect several tweeters and set up your own dashboard for each, for example, the husband controls the entire account, the wife sends payments to the Family Budget panel, and the children in the School panel.

You can read all the possibilities in a special manual.

Our bot works on a trial period and is active once every 10 minutes (that is, payments do not go into the finobox immediately). There may be some roughness in the work (read the "beta version").

As always, we will be very grateful for your feedback and suggestions.
