Default Re: Balance adjustment in Microsoft Money

Adjustments are bad, very bad. If you have an error balancing, you should
find the error and correct it, that is the point of balancing your accounts.
Add an adjustment only as a last resort.

Default Re: Balance adjustment in Microsoft Money

Categorizing the positive difference as the expense category is OK too. The
warning is just that. This does make some sense--kinda like categorizing a
rebate the same as the original expense--it just reduces the apparent
spending in this category. If you want, you can create an income category
for it.

Default Balance adjustment in Microsoft Money

When I try to balance my MS money checking account I get sometimes this
error.

"for account adjustment, you have entered an income category for an
expense, or an expense category for income. Do you want to change it?"

It looks like that I am trying to place a balance ajustment in the
wrong category.

What I am doing is when my balance is negative I just categorize as a
regular adjustment. But what happens when the difference is positive?
How should I categorize it?
