Default Re: Setting up a Budget

See http://umpmfaq.info/faqdb.php?q=53 and
http://umpmfaq.info/faqdb.php?q=62. The short answer is that payments to
your credit card (exclusive of interest charges) are not "Expenses" they are
cash flow. You had the Expense the day you used the card for Foodining
Out. Money budgets THAT since that's where you can control the spending. The
Transfer to the Credit Card account is cashflow--moving money from one
pocket to the other. Expense make you poorer and Income makes you richer.
Cashflow does neither.

Default Setting up a Budget

Hope one of you folks can help.
I am trying to set up the budget feature and in the expense I can not
seem to see the catagory for credit cards.

I have been doing a transfer to the cc account so the cats appear
similar to transfer: [cc account name], i have also tried changing the
payents so the catagory is credit card: [cc account name]

Thanks
Steve
