How do I see my inventory on a past date?

Before you start

• A Supporter plan: How do I become a Supporter?
• An inventory snapshot: What is a snapshot, and why does my inventory say “Estimated”?

Step by step

1. Open Inventory and find “As of” in the row above the list.
2. Click the date next to it and pick a past day. You cannot pick a day after today.
3. Read the total at the top: it now shows your inventory value for that day, and the prices in the list follow.
4. Check the pill beside the page title. “Estimated” means the list was rebuilt from your events; “Snapshot · 3 Oct” means it comes from a snapshot taken that day.
5. Click “Back to today” to return to your current inventory.

Good to know

• Today's view uses your newest snapshot whatever its age; a past date uses only a snapshot taken on that day, otherwise the list is rebuilt from your events up to that day.
• Prices come from the first daily price on or after the date, and today's price if there is none, so old dates can be approximate.
• The value-over-time block next to the total does not change with the date.
• The prompt to take a snapshot is hidden while a past date is chosen.
• Without Supporter the control reads “As of Today” with a lock, and clicking it opens an explanation. See the plans page to subscribe.
