Analyst
About Analyst
Analyst collects information about the virtual economy and presents that information to the player. In its Economy panel, Analyst answers questions such as the following:
- How much gold did I earn and how?
- How much gold did I spend and on what?
- How am I doing in the auction house?
- What have I looted from mobs?
- What items did I consume?
- What items did I produce?
- How many currencies (marks, badges, emblems) have I collected?
- What have I deposited or withdrawn from the guild bank?
- What is my gathering and crafting activity?
- ... and much more
All reports can be shown over a configurable period (days, weeks, month).
Screenshots
The Economy panel lets you choose between the various reports offered by Analyst. Also, the reporting period of time can be chosen. Central information is displayed in the top frame. Data from two selected reports in shown in the bottom frames.
For the This Week report, the start day of week can be configured in the options. For example, a raid player may want to set the start day of week to the beginning of the raid ID period.
If you mouseover a statistic item, a tooltip provides detailed drill-down information on that statistic:
Usage
If you have a Lightweight Data Broker (LDB) container add-on such as Titan Panel, Analyst shows in that container. Left-clicking the Analyst icon toggles the Economy panel; right-clicking the icon shows the options.
If you do not have an LDB container, type /analyst economy to toggle the Economy panel and /analyst options to show the options.
Analyst provides a key binding to toggle the Economy panel. You may want to assign a key to that binding to gain quick access to Analyst.

Posted Feb 12, 2020I've been using this addon for years. It starting throwing errors a while ago, and I disabled it until I had a chance to poke at it. I had to reinstall my entire machine this past weekend (RIP disk drive) and here is the current error. I don't suppose it will ever come back?

Posted Dec 22, 2018Despite the fix for 8.0.1, this still has the caluclation Auction House flaw I mentioned 2 years ago.
Say for example lets say you sell an old world recipe for 20 gold. The Auction House cut will be 1 gold. Your net profit is 19 gold. You are returned whatever the deposit was - in this case, 5 silver, 25 copper - so in total, you receive 19 gold, 5 silver, 25 copper; but for some reason Analyst records 20.1g profit or 20gold, 10 silver.
This is just wrong. Firstly, it's recording the whole profit value, and not calculation the loss for the Auction House cut, and secondly where does the 10 silver even come from? Technically the refunded deposit isn't profit, so it shouldn't even be calculated, but even if it is (since I imagine the deposit would be calculated as a loss) it should be 5 silver, 25 copper, not 10 silver which is almost double the amount.
EDIT - I switched to Accountant Classic. Does pretty much the same thing, doesn't get the math wrong.

Posted May 12, 2018Pretty sure this is broken now. The add-on is still registering for some transactions, but it's not working in other areas, such as the AH. Posting items still registers the costs, and when it wants to it registers income from sales, but it will randomly miss sales incomes at times for some reason. Sold a ton of 200 stack linen cloth, and none of the registered, while one-off gear sales did.
The author told me (when I asked) they do intend on working on the add-om again, so for now it's on the unloaded list until then.

Posted Nov 13, 2016Editing the .toc file should be enough to get this working for 7.1.0 for now, although this is by no means a proper fix
EDIT
Maybe this will help towards figuring out the issues

Posted Dec 3, 2016I have a fix for the second error you quoted in https://www.wowace.com/projects/analyst/issues/27
You'll have to edit Capture.lua yourself though, until it's applied in the addon proper.

Posted Jan 11, 2016I like this add-on but I have a couple of questions:
1: Is there an overall income/expenses summary feature anywhere? I can't seem to find one, and I'd really like to see the net profit/loss at a glance.
2: Is it possible to datamine a character's overall history of expenses? I'd like to see the "big picture" and see the net profit/loss of the character since creation. Wow already has most of this information available under statistics/character/wealth, but once again I'd rather not have to do the math.

Posted Nov 29, 2014Is it possible you could add a second checkbox "this realm only" next to "all characters"?
I have a few characters on a couple of different realms, and the amount of gold one earns or spends on one realm has nothing to do with what is earned or spent on another.
