Description:
Auditor is a nifty addon that tracks your incoming and outgoing money from a variety of sources, and provides an easy to use FuBar interface to choose whose data you would like to look at, and for what time period. It is, essentially, MoneyFu for those who have obsessive information disorder. Like me. Yes, I *must* know how much I spent on training last week. Why? I dunno. But I must.
Features:
- Works with or without FuBar installed!
- Money tracking, and lots of it.
- Data separated by realm.
- Character totals.
- Combined totals.
- Clickable tooltip to customise what you can and can't see.
- Ability to look at all your characters' specific data from any of your other characters on that realm.
- Accounts can be viewed per session, day, last seven days, or in their full, all-time glory.
- Cash notification options.
- Optional auto-repairs (per-character preference).
- Optional auto-sell for grey items (per-realm preference).
- Time offsets, so you can set Auditor to reset when dailies reset!
- Many things. Just get it and see!
What does Auditor track?
- Loot money! Whether you are solo, in a party or in a raid.
- Vendor money! Stuff you buy from or sell to vendors.
- Quest money! Money you gain from quests, and money you spend on quests (e.g. the Scholomance Key quest).
- Trade money! Doing enchants or transmutes? Yep, it catches money exchanged in trade.
- Mail money! Sending money to/from your alts or friends? Tracked.
- AH money! At last, both outgoing AND incoming Auction House money is tracked.
- Training money! How much did you spend on training and respecs? Do you care? Well, you'll know anyway.
- Flight money! Spent a day flying about Azeroth? See how much you should claim back on your tax expenses.
- Repairs money! See how much money you really spent on repairing your kit after those instances.
- Unknown money! Money gained/lost, but for whatever reason, Auditor can't work out where it's from. Better than nothing, anyway.
- Reconciliation money! That's money for when you just installed Auditor, and it has to account for the cash you have right now, or for when you crashed, or were logged on at a friend's house. It's all good.
- Guild Bank money! Money you deposit or withdraw from your Guild Bank. Exciting, I know.
When does it track it for?
AuditorFu tracks your money on a per session, per day, per last-seven-days and all-time basis.
New features:
- New option: Time Offset - you can use this to make Auditor reset at a time other than midnight, local time. Useful for dailies etc.
- Reworked date storage system: A random side-effect of this is that if you play in a non-English locale, the month should bizarrely be localised for your language!
- Combined totals: You can now access this option by clicking on 'Total' at the bottom of the tooltip. It is a toggleable, per-realm option, and will override the 'Character to show...' option while active.
- PLEASE NOTE: Your seven day audit will be cleared out upon installing this update. Your Total audit will not be affected. Essentially, it will just appear like you haven't logged on for a week. No data is lost!
Known Bugs:
None.
PLEASE NOTE: AuditorFu works great without FuBar installed, but to enjoy all of its features, it is recommended that you have FuBar installed.
Please vote, if you like AuditorFu!
Change Log - FuBar - AuditorFu
Version 3.2.1a
- Reuploaded for some people who are having issues with being unable to download the latest version for some reason!
Version 3.2.1
- Fixed stupid error caused by removal of certain globals in patch 2.4.2. Undocumented Blizz rando-changes ftw!
Version 3.2.0
- Finally fixed timezone issues, which was seriously complicated!
- New option: Time Offset - you can use this to make Auditor reset at a time other than midnight, local time. Useful for dailies etc.
- Reworked date storage system: A random side-effect of this is that if you play in a non-English locale, the month should bizarrely be localised for your language!

Version 3.1.0
- Added in optional use of guild bank for auto-repairs. This function also keeps a running total of the amount of guild money you have used so far for repairs, per toon, displayed in chat (like the Cash Notify stuff).
- Reworked Auto-Repair function to work properly with faction reductions. This does, however, mean that Auto-Sell Grey Items mods will screw up the categorisation of repairs. So...
- Added Auto-Sell Grey Items function. This is accessible in the options menu under Merchant Options --> Auto-Sell. If you want to use Auto-Repair and Auto-Sell mods with Auditor, feel free - but the functions now included in Auditor are the only ones 99% likely to work properly. It is defaulted to off, and is a per-realm option.
- Changed menu options and options storage layout. These will be clarified below:
Merchant Options --> Auto-Repair (per-character option), Guild Repair (per-character option) and Auto-Sell (per-realm option).
Cash Notify --> AH, Mailbox, Vendor, Trainer, Guild Bank (per-realm options)
And various other cleanups of tooltip options into better organised categories.
- P.S. Using other Auto-Repair and Auto-Sell mods is cool, like I said, nothing will break - but your Repair and Vendor categories will not maintain accuracy.
- .toc bump for 2.4.
Version 3.0.4
- Fixed some library issues for those running without FuBar.
Version 3.0.3
- Added option to allow display of Realm Total on FuBar, e.g. 101.7g/5342.6g.
Version 3.0.2
- Nil check added for when AuditorFu has been disabled, or hasn't finished loading.
Version 3.0.1
- Added in Guild Bank category.
Version 3.0.0
- Complete rewrite. Crossed fingers, everyone. Hehehehe.
Many people have personal guild banks on their alts for hoarding stuff. Is it possible to have a listing of monies in the various guild banks you have access to in a checklist, so that you can include the personal ones in your tally of cash?
Originally posted by Alarisha Hey there! Thanks for your kind words. It sounds to me like you may be toggling the 'Combined' option by accident. You can do this by clicking on the 'Total' line at the bottom of the tooltip, or from the options - but it sounds to me like you may be clicking the 'Total' line by accident.
Hope that helps!
You my dear addon developer, are a hero That was exactly what I was doing, guess Iīm going blind

As for the tooltip, I can actually understand your apprehension. The root of it is though that Tablet was a bit of a hog, and that's why they seem to be straying from dynamic tooltips, that said... DataBroker can work with Tablet but it's just a little more effort to get it working. What you could do however is put the more dynamic elements (such as which parts will be shown in the tooltip, and what type of display is used; session/day/week/et cetera) in the options. So that's one possible workaround.
Really though, I'm just thinking aloud. I can see how this is going to be a big undertaking, I'm just glad that you Auditor has a future as I've become quite dependent on it! ...i spend too much at Auction Houses without it.
Yeah, making it work without a clickable tooltip shouldn't be too hard, to be honest. But, in my mind at least, that would be a big step backwards - personally, I always use the clickable tip rather than the options menu to change stuff. I'm still secretly hoping that someone will LibStub Tablet for me :P
First of, this is really a great addon. This is one of my core addons I never switch.
However lately Iīve been experiencing a wee bit of a problem. About a week ago I noticed that the Auditor display on my paladin displayed not only in-/outgoings for my paladin that day, but a combined number for the paladin + a couple of banks. I donīt remember to have enabled that feature and could not get it to revert. Futheremore I could only show Todays/Total data, not Session and Seven Day.
I did a clean sweep, removed the addon and all saved variables, then installed it again. Logged in to my main, a mage. First it seemed fine, but after a couple of minuts I couldnīt show Session and Seven Day again and it seemed to try to combine my chars again.
I have no idea what is causing this and any help would be appreciated. It may be me being dumb and just not noticing something, but if someone could enlighten me, I would be a happy dane
Edit: I use a huge number of addons, so if anyone know about any conflicts, please tell. That may be the issue.

Heaven forfend!
I do plan to look at the DataBroker stuff, but the tooltip part is what is making me slightly leery of the changeover. I'm really busy at work at the moment, so I'm kinda not even getting time to play WoW atm, let alone code.
However... I do have a spiffy roadmap of things I want to do, and they will all be done (touch wood) over the next month or two, and definitely before WotLK launches.
Do you have any plans on making a DataBroker part to replace/augment the FuBar part of Auditor2? The reason I ask is because of Wrath, it's just around the corner and FuBar has been out of development for a while now as I understand it. It seems that ckknight is no longer developing it, and none of the folks over at the WoWAce community seem interested in continuing it.
That said, I have tried AuditorFu with FuBar2Broker but the sub-menus (on right-click) don't seem to work. Considering that those menus are the only way to configure the visual output, I'd be a bit screwed if I wanted to change any options.
I realise that it might be hard to include a menu with a DataBroker plugin, but it could be possible instead to add a configuration menu to the Blizzard Options interface, like a lot of mods seem to be doing these days. You could use Ace3 for that, and having used Ace3 myself I can vouch for how amazingly easy that is to implement.
As I said starting out, I really like this mod and I really don't want to see it fall into obscurity, so I was just wondering what your future plans for development are and if they include any of the above.
Originally posted by mizrolist Any plan to make a LibDataBroker-plugin for Auditor? I really love your addon, but I want to remove completely FuBar and I don't like the FuBar2Broker-like hacks...
I haven't really looked into LibDataBroker stuff yet. One of the things that has stopped me pursuing other libraries is that there's no framework independent version of TabletLib (that I know of), and I use it heavily for the display stuff.

Originally posted by Kyote It works with fubar, but I like Titan Panel. Does it work on Titan? If not can it be made to and where would I start?
Feel free to have a go. I've never looked into Titan programming, but the actual backend of Auditor is entirely independent of FuBar, and all the data is accessible in game through the Auditor database to any addon that cares to poke about. Good luck!
