Hello, If you set the monthly planned amounts on the Spending Plan panel at the bottom instead of using an average amount in the middle next to a bucket, MoneyWell will allocate those specific amounts each month. You'll still see the average amount in the middle section because MoneyWell has to show some number to give you an idea of how your month will look but it does use the actual amount. If you enter a zero as the bucket planned amount on that panel, MoneyWell will clear out all the months so you can simply add a single amount in a month (or two months).
