🔍 Behind the Scenes: BQL Queries

All data on this tab comes from direct bean-query BQL queries. Here are the exact queries used:

Net Worth Components

Total Assets:

SELECT convert(sum(position), 'USD') WHERE account ~ '^Assets'

Total Liabilities:

SELECT convert(sum(position), 'USD') WHERE account ~ '^Liabilities'

Net Worth = Assets - |Liabilities|

Monthly Metrics

Current Month Income:

SELECT convert(sum(position), 'USD') WHERE account ~ '^Income' AND date >= 2026-02-01 AND date <= 2026-02-28

Current Month Expenses:

SELECT convert(sum(position), 'USD') WHERE account ~ '^Expenses' AND date >= 2026-02-01 AND date <= 2026-02-28

Dates are dynamically calculated based on the current month

Historical Chart Data

Net Worth Over Time:

SELECT year, month, only('USD', convert(last(balance), 'USD', last(date))) WHERE account ~ '^(Assets|Liabilities)' ORDER BY year, month

This query groups data by month and gets the last balance for each period, converted to your operating currency.

tip

You can run these queries yourself in a BQL code block or use them as templates for custom financial dashboards!
