To close an account in Extrack, open the Accounts page, tap the account, tap Edit and tick the "Mark this account as closed (hide from new entries)" checkbox. Save. The account drops from the new-transaction picker but stays in the Accounts list under the "Include closed" visibility toggle, keeps every transaction, and still appears in Reports.

Steps

  1. Tap the account row and Edit

    Accounts → row → Edit.

  2. Tick "Mark this account as closed"

    Full label: "Mark this account as closed (hide from new entries)". Only available in Edit mode.

  3. Save

    Account vanishes from pickers. The Accounts list still shows it when the "Include closed" toggle is on.

  4. Show closed accounts on the list

    On the Accounts page, in the visibility filter row, toggle "Include closed" on. Closed accounts surface with a "Closed" badge.

Frequently asked

Close vs Delete — which one?

Almost always Close. Delete is permanent and removes every transaction posted to or from the account. Close preserves history.

Can I re-open?

Yes. Edit, untick "Mark this account as closed", save. The account is back in pickers immediately.
