Default RE: 3 paycheck months

I too got paid biweekly and I found it easier to have the budget off and
simply have the paycheck deductions correct for the first paycheck of each
month. I'd have to manually adjust the 2nd (and 3rd) paycheck to match the
statements. I kinda liked having actual expenses come out lower than
budgeted expenses - the resulting difference went into savings.

Default Re: 3 paycheck months

The only way I'm thinking of is great for budget but lousy for data entry.
I'd probably setup the scheduled bi-weekly entry for the annual amount/26.
This would be wrong on every transaction since they'd be either 1/24 of the
deduction or 0. But if you want the budget to stay correct, there may not be
an easier way. At least not one I'm thinking of.

Default 3 paycheck months

I get paid bi weekly, and my company takes certain deductions once per
month. So, for most months every other paycheck has the decuctions,
the others don't. So, I figure I just set up two different paychecks
in the bill section that would be paid every 4 weeks. The rub occurs
in the months when I get 3 paychecks. Any ideas on how to set this up
in a way that the budget is accurate?
