Budgets
An annual figure per account, spread the way your year actually behaves.
Set an annual amount against an account and choose how it spreads across the year.
- Evenly — a twelfth a month. Right for insurance, management fees, most fixed costs.
- By your own shape — right for anything seasonal. Heating is not a twelfth in July.
Actuals come from the journal entries, so budget against actual is a comparison of the same numbers rather than two separately maintained spreadsheets.
