Hi Kevin, Thank you for your prompt response!
I did not allocate early, no, I left the money in my Salary bucket from the 25th to today. When I opened MoneyWell today all the expense buckets reflected the new negative values as I would expect, but my Salary bucket almost doubled. It seems to have added the figure I had in the bucket to my monthly salary, and the figure that was in the bucket has been treated as left over from May. I have exited and restarted MoneyWell a few times and nothing changes. Does this shed any light? Many thanks Craig.
