Whoop, I was wrong. It did actually work as intended when I mapped accounts to 
exclude to “Income”, I was just miscalculating how much I had for the month 
(forgot to add what has already been spent this month). Please disregard!

Subject: excluding accounts in fava-envelope
Hello, I'm new to the world of plain-text accounting but have been diving in 
head-first and learning a ton.

I'm trying to set up my YNAB-style budget using fava-envelope, but have run 
into an issue. I have some investment sub-accounts under Assets:Investment:*, 
and it appears that if I've transferred money into one of these from one of my 
bank accounts, those transactions show up in the budget as categories. I end up 
seeing something like "Assets:Investment:Vanguard" with the amount 
corresponding to how much I put in that month. I've tried mapping these 
accounts to "Income" as someone suggested, but this seems to throw the "funds 
for month" out of whack.

Is there a more robust way to exclude accounts from the budget calculations? 
Thanks!

—Juan
