Every month when I get that statement I append it to a growing pdf
I maintain each record as separate notes
The title is prefixed with the date (yyyy-mm-dd) and tagged as required -

Out of interest, how has it been eviscerated? Genuine question, as I haven't yet made the leap to v10.
My workflows are automated with integrated scripting (Applescript) on the Mac platform
This feature was dropped with the v10 conversionAn example is exporting receipt data to a spreadsheet for budget/expense reporting

for me, i'm just thinking to go to legacy because I want to use it in alfred. Seems a bit odd that amazing integration was lost.
I don't think Legacy can be considered a viable product; it's sun has set 🙁
Loss of integrated scripting (Applescript) was my reason for converting from Evernote to Devonthink -

I use a SaaS solution called You Need A Budget and again, that works super well for me. I see no reason to try to move that function into Evernote.
Evernote Legacy was my Digital File Cabinet
All my financial transactions were stored/organized as notes
tagged as required.For budget/expense reporting, I export the data to a spreadsheet (Apple Numbers)
YNAB is a great product, but I like the diy flexibility of a spreadsheet with integrated scripting (Applescript) -

I don't currently feel I have a use for tags but am open to suggestions
I'm a tagger
Historically, tags have been Evernotes primary organization tool
with notebooks used to identify notes for sharing, offline, local (legacy), ...For me, the most important benefit is that multiple tags can be assigned to a note
Notes are restricted to a single notebook assignment
fwiw I don't use nested tags
I reflect hierarchy in tag names for example:
Budget
Budget-Housing
Budget-HousingRent
Budget-HousingUtilites>I recent culled roughly 2,500 notes down to about 170
I have over 20,000 notes
That number is well short of causing any issues,
and "culling" is not a priority for me -

personal organisation including finance data
I've always stored financial transaction data (income/expense) along side my other personal data
I even use monthly transaction files from the bank to ensure every transaction is included>So the user setup the "Finantial Labels" following his finantial accounting labels
I use tags; Budget-aaaaaaaa with something similar to your set of names
>My difficulty is to sum-up after several months the amount of each expense class....hates very complicated applications such as spreadsheets
I enjoy using spreadsheets for my budget/expense reports
It gives me freedom from the restrictions imposed by dedicated financial apps
Back when Evernote supported integrated scripting, I used an Applescript to export my financial data to a spreadsheet- 1

I was not a fan of the new app at first
I'm a Mac user, using integrated scripting (Applescript) to automate my workflows
Evernote's v10 product dropped support for Applescript, and is not acceptable for my use
>I binned Legacy over a year ago
Evernote's Legacy product still supports Applescript integration -

Each task should be it's own note
This is how I've always handled project/task management
Also as a note, we're able to add tags (another user request)
I assign a project-id tag to link tasks to a project>When I create a new task, Evernote should create a new note
i do the reverse; first create the note then assign as a task

This is called a vendor lock-in!
Not sure if "vendor lock-in" is the correct term
but we know data is lost on an export (notebook, note-id, reminders, tag hierarchy ...)- 1

Suddenly SpannerCo come along, wrench (ahahah) it from my hand and force on me a bright, shiny ....
I was a long time Evernote Legacy user
There was no "wrenching it from my hand"; no "force on me"
I continued using the Legacy product, and understand it's still functional todayI did try out the "bright shiny" v10 product for no cost
But decided it wasn't the tool I needed- 1

Does Devonthink uses the evernote API to extract the note id?
I don't have the details but Evernote Legacy API would be my guess
(not available with the v10 product) -

Does DEVONThink import note links as well?
Yes, note links are imported as well
And more important, the links are converted to the new Devonthink notes- 2

In evernote, each note is a small container
"Note container" is my view of Evernote Legacy on my Mac
where each note is represented by an OS folder holding
. a note file (.enml format)
. attachment files
A small database (.sql) holds all the note metadata- 1

Evernote abandoned users like me
Evernote has not "abandoned users"
Accounts are still supported; client software is still functional (Legacy and Version 10)
>... 10 years worth of Evernote data locked into some odd XML format with no way out.The data formal is enml; basically html
I had no problem exporting my data
(using my Mac and the Legacy client software) -

What goals do you achieve with your EN structure?
The access and retrieval of specific data; text search also works
For tasks, I used Evernote for simple goal/project/task management
Identifying outstanding tasks and their due dates (GTD stuff)
For receipts and financial transactions; budget and expense reporting>Also, I am wondering if your use of the word "classify" is synonymous with me using "qualify"
Sure
I think of qualify more as - be entitled to a particular benefit or privilege by fulfilling a necessary condition. -

I use Tags to qualify the Notes.
I used Tags to classify notes
I used Notebooks to identify notes as shared/offline/local (legacy)>And my GTD setup has Notes in one of three states - Action Pending, Action Completed, and Reference Material.
I used the Reminder feature to identify tasks
Reminders also have built-in due-date and completed status/date
offline access via tag

For those who organize notes using notebooks, this is a hardship;
they have to upset their organization, just to get offline access on mobile devices
I support this request for tags specifying offline access
Personally, I organize using tags
My use of notebooks is to indicate; offline access / sharing / local (legacy)
