Make the number of transaction while settling minimum that too with minimum amount.
While calculating who owes whom how much, we get the the total amount owed to someone or total amount getting back which is the net of what we owe and what we get back, but it still shows the maximum number of transaction which can be reduced to minimum number of transaction with minimum amount in each transaction. For e.g.
A owes B 200 , B owes C 300 and C owes A 100, so finally A owes 100, B owes 100 and C gets back 200 which is mentioned but the transaction mentioned is like A owes B 200 and gets back 100 from C, B owes C 300 and gets back 200 from A and C owes A 100 and gets back 300 from B, which could be simplified to a minimum amount and minimum number of transaction like A owes C 100 and B owes C 100. Its the same thing but simplified de to less number of transactions.
This method is used in splitabill.com, I currently use it but I really like your interface and wish to migrate to it if you could please make the changes I suggested, it makes settling up really easy.
If you are not clear with what I am trying to say reply me back and I will explain with screenshots of this same values used in splitwise.
Within a group, go on the website and click on “settle up.” There’s an option at the top to turn on debt shuffle, which figures out the minimum necessary transactions to get back to 0.
