I recommend that you reconcile your account. You can use the daily balance line at the bottom of the window to help you. Select transactions starting from the beginning and scroll down until the daily balance is different from your bank statement's daily balance. > P.S.

If so, I agree with the > user, such a feature he describes would be wonderful. Yes, this is correct. For allocations, money left in a bucket is ignored when a new month starts. I am reviewing options for this in a future release.
