Hello,

MoneyWell allows you to assign buckets as tax-related so you can print  
out tax specific summary or detail reports. If you have both a  
personal and a work budget, I recommend creating two MoneyWell  
documents and keeping those separate. I do that myself. I have a  
personal MoneyWell document and one for No Thirst Software.

Will this work for you?

Peace,

Kevin Hoctor
