I'd like to see more uniformity to the way I can view my transactions.

I'd like to be able to see a credit or debit in-world on my account stats, the same as it would appear on the website.

Right now, it's different. In account info in world, there is a little more detail:

L$500 SomeAv Avatar paid into CoolCars Vendor (or something like that)

Yet on the website transaction history, it only appears as an avie name and credit/debit. There's no information there to tell me what they paid into. Or what I've paid into.

Also... The credit popup dialog box. I'd like to see the same details in there. Not just who's paying me, and what amount. I want to know what they paid into, if anything. And leave it blank for people that are just throwing money around for no reason. :D At least going the other direction (buying something), I have some details on what's going on at the time. Either with an object bouncing my way, or the "Buy this object and its contents" Popup.

Now... Some vendors out there are kind enough to IM me with details on what I've bought, or sold. But this isn't always the case. Especially with just boxed/for sale items that have no scripts running.

And even with vendor IM's. I'd really like to be able to look back and track all my purchases/sales in detail (not have to copy/paste a bunch of IM's throughout my Second Lifetime into some notecard or .txt file). So more detail there, that I can look back on. Not just fleeting IM's (if I'm lucky).

An added benefit would be some colorization. Like, show all debits in red or something. It would make skimming over a transaction history in world or on the website a breeze. If you're just curious how much more red than black there is.

To sum it up. I'd think it would be super-cool if there were more details to all transactions (account history in world/website, AND the ka-ching dialog box), as well as accurate crossover between the in world account history and the website. And color relevant data. <-- Stands out, doesn't it! :p

I highly endorse this product and/or service!

The two major things I'd really like to see...

If I pay someone directly through their profile I'd like to see that on the in world transaction summary as I do in the transaction history on the website. Yesterday I was paying out to a list of people and kept getting interrupted. I had to go to the website to see who I'd already paid.

I love that we can dowload excel spreadsheets of our transactions, but it needs to show the item names. It's pretty worthless without them. I'd also like to see a downloadable excel file for the week rather than for individual days. Even monthly would be fine. If it's within 30 days I can find it on the in-world ledger. It would be nice to be able to download 1 file instead of 30.

These things would be a boon for merchants and a huge timesaver.
