Standings button shows if participant has payables or receivables or if he or she is even in relation to other participants. It also opens Standings view when applicable.
2.2 Transaction
Transaction is situation where payments and benefits are involved. You can leave the transaction only when value of payments and benefits is equal inside the transaction.
Payment field is the place for participant’s contribution to transactions payments, like money handed for restaurant bill.
Benefit field is the place for participant’s share of received benefits, like value of his or her portion at restaurant or his or her share of road toll.
Buttons in front of payments and benefits can be used for money transfers between participants. This is handy when event is finished and it is time to pay payables and receive receivables.
Allocate button indicates what is the difference between payments and benefits inside the transaction. Allocate button makes it possible to either allocate unallocated benefits evenly to all participants or allocate unallocated payment to selected participant.

4. Example.
You are on bus with Mike and Lisa at Barcelona. Mike paid tickets; those were 3 times 4 resulting 12 in total. You open ECS and create a new event called Barcelona. You name participants and first transaction as Bus. You also enter a payment of 12 to Mike. ECS indicates that there are benefits of 12 to be allocated. You press the allocate button and allocation is done.
You may now press standings button to get an overview of standings. Standings shows Mike has receivables 8 (=-8=4-12). You and Lisa have payables of 4 (=4-0) each.
Next stop is a cafeteria. You will have cappuccino, Mike takes black coffee, and Lisa prefers latte. Values of the drinks are 4, 5 and 6 respectively. You create transaction Café and enter the values of drinks as a benefit to participants. ESC shows that there is payment of 15 to be allocated. You will pay so you select yourself and press the allocate button. Standings are now: You: receivables 7 (=-7=4+4-15), Mike: receivables 3 (=-3=-8+5-0) and Lisa: payables 10 (=10=4+6-0).
Lisa has suitable note on her pocket, so she gives that to Mike. You create a new transaction called From Lisa to Mike. You select Lisa and press button in front of her payment field. Then you change to Mike and press button in front of his benefit field. Lisa is now even. Mike has payables 7 (=7=-3+10) and you have still receivables 7.
Mike makes bank transfer to you and you create transaction respectively. This time you select yourself and press the button in front of your benefit field. Then you select Mike and press the button in front of his payment field. Standings show now that all are even so cost splitting for this event is done.
