I have this up and running. I made a simple spending plan to start out slow. Mostly Bills, Dining Out etc. I entered all my transactions and that is matching my bank account perfectly.
I assume the goal is to not have any unassigned transactions. I had about 20 and dragged them into the appropriate buckets. I am down to about 13 now. If the buckets went negative I just did a manual flow from my Salary bucket to being it back to Zero since I actually did spend our Salary on that item before I actually created the spending plan. Is this the correct way to do this (at least for getting your first month rolling)? Is the ultimate goal to always have your Salary bucket be Zero after allocation? Also, what if there are things that just fall outside of the plan? I got some checks in from other sources like medical reimbursements, rebate checks Kind of getting it but still confused. Def gonna stick it out though. I feel good knowing that no matter what my Transaction register matches my bank and works like any other financial program. Now I just need to get the whole cash flow layer under my hat... I kind of rambled here but if you can pick out any nuggets that may have been dug up here I would appreciate it. I have decided to drop iBank and move exclusively to MoneyWell. I know in time I will have this down! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "No Thirst Software User Forum" group.
