I think I understand that I can start tracking transactions without starting to track cash flows yet. I've created a spending plan already, so am reading to go with that. However, I won't receive my first paycheck for the month of February until Feb. 13. I've created my checking accounts and entered starting balances as of Feb. 01. I'm also entering transactions, but am wondering if I can do that without assigning buckets, since I haven't flowed any income into those buckets yet. I notice the transactions show up as unassigned, but don't know the ramifications of that.
I'm thinking that on Feb. 13, I will enter my paycheck income, and flow income into my spending buckets accordingly. Then, any transactions that occur after that will be assigned to a bucket. Does this make sense? Also, what if I have a bill that comes up that doesn't yet have enough money in the bucket? For example, I just got a huge car repair bill. Although I'm setting up a bucket for car repairs, there won't be enough in that bucket for awhile. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "No Thirst Software User Forum" group.
