Honestly I don't care about subdividing everything for expense tracking purposes and would prefer to merge buckets, but it seems I need the separation for spending plan purposes since there is no way I've found to handle this inside MoneyWell. For people who have managed to reduce their number of buckets, what process do you use to set the spending plan amount every month? For example, if you have a generic bucket named "Utilities" that tracks 5 different monthly bills, how do you come up with the total spending amount for each month so you know how much income to allocate there? Do you use a separate spreadsheet (or pen & paper) to estimate and sum up all your bills for the month and then enter that into MoneyWell? I'd like to avoid having to maintain a separate spreadsheet and do everything inside MoneyWell. Having separate buckets for every monthly bill is the only way I've found so far that accomplishes this.
