On this page

When you split with or lend money to someone in Extrack, the app silently creates a Loan-type account named "{Name}'s Lent" — the per-person receivable. View them under Accounts → "Lent" filter pill. You rarely touch these accounts directly; the People page summarises their balances per person, and the Adjust split panel posts to them via `receivableAccountId`.

Where to view them

Accounts page → tap the "Lent" filter pill (next to the Loan type pill). The list shows every "{Name}'s Lent" account with its current balance — which equals that person's balance on the People page.

Frequently asked

Can I create a "Lent" account manually?

Yes — when you create a Loan account, the form has an optional "Lent receivable — link to person" field. Set it to link a manually created Loan to a person from your directory. Useful for migrating balances from another tracker.

What happens to the Lent account when I delete the person?

Removing a person from the directory updates how they appear in the directory; transactions stay attached via id, and the Lent account stays until you remove the underlying transactions.
