The Home Screen and using views

IOUMate always starts with the home screen. Here you can select which items you want to view or create a new IOU item.

1. What I owe - Shows items with type of IOU.
2. What's owed to me - Shows items with type of UOMe.
3. What's due - Shows both items (IOU & UOMe) with due date that has passed.
4. All items - Shows all items.

Creating and editing an IOU (or UOMe) item

The details form is used to both enter new item details and edit existing items.

• General - Item category, type, name, amount & description.
• Dates & Alarms - Creation, due & returned date and alarm settings.
  Note: An alarm can be set only if a due date was entered, since alarms are set for according to the due date.

Working with the IOUMate table

Whichever view you select from the Home screen the, the items will be presented in the IOUMate table.

• Editing - Need to update an item? Tap the item's line to open the item in the details form.
• Sorting - Looking for all the books people owe you? How about all the stuff that you borrowed John? Tap the appropriate column title to sort the table by that column.
  Tap the same column again to switch the sort order from ascending to descending.
• Resizing - Some column is to narrow or wide? Drag the resizers (the small arrows between columns) to resize the column as you see fit.
• Total - Total (bottom right of screen) will show the total of IOUs amount minus UOMEs amount. The total will be displayed only when a category other than 'All' or 'unfiled' is selected!

Using IOUMate reminders (alarms)

Use the IOUMate reminders to remind before an items due date is approaching.

See editing to learn how to set an alarm.

When an alarm goes off it will present basic information about the item including type, name, category, due date and description.

The Alarm controls are::

• Snooze - When the snooze checkbox is checked, the alarm will snooze according to the setting from the drop down menu next to it. For example, in the screenshot to the right, the alarm will go on again in 5 minutes.
• OK - Taping the OK button will close the alarm, setting a snooze if snooze was checked.
• Item Returned - Tap this button to mark an item as returned. Snooze will be ignored if this button is used.
