Accounts managed by the DRP are included by definition in the 'Debt'
category of the budget. You cannot change that.

It's illogical to want them in the budget, anyway. Money's premise of
accounts in the DRP is that you are not using them for active spending. The
fact you want them in the budget implies that you are.

I suggest you not use DRP accounts for spending. Transfer balances to lower
interest cards in the DRP. Use the higher interest cards for day-to-day
expenses and pay them off every month.

I recently "upgraded" from Money 2006 to Money 2007. I keep all of my
credit card accounts in the Debt Reduction Planner so that it
automatically creates billing items for me.

I've noticed that transactions I enter in my credit card accounts no
longer show up in the Spending Tracker or Budget. Only transactions in
accounts not included in the Debt Reduction Planner are included. If I
take those accounts out of the Debt Reduction Planner, all of my
transaction start counting against my budget.

Is this a bug or am I missing something? All of these accounts have
their "use this account in the budget" checkbox checked.

If there's no way around this, how else can I have Money dynamically
create bills for the credit cards? The "pay the entire balance off
each period" box doesn't seem to automatically adjust the dollar amount
of the bills associated with those accounts.
