I did. I checked it against my online account balance. My MoneyWell starting balance agrees with my bank statement balance that occurs just before my first transaction in MoneyWell. That is, I got my starting balance from my bank statement, then began entering transactions from that point.
For the MW acct balance to come out right, I have to change the starting balance from $930.29 (the initial balance entry on my bank statement) to $925.91. (Note: I used a calculator on both MW displayed transaction AND on my bank statement.) I suppose that initial balance entry on my bank statement could be wrong. (That entry is from the middle of the statement, so something prior to that entry could've been calculated wrong by the bank, I guess.) P.S. As an aside, am I understanding the relationship between rollovers and allocations properly?...note this post by another user... > Alternatively a > system whereby the Allocate Income feature looks at what is in the > buckets and only allocated what is needed to top them up to the > Spending Plan level would be good ...so MW allocates the Spending Plan amount regardless of the amount rolled over from the previous month, correct? If so, I agree with the user, such a feature he describes would be wonderful.
