Default Re: Budget Problem - [all other] Categories

Evidently I'm just an idiot. It wasn't availble in the sub categories to
add, so I started poking around more and found that for some reason a couple
of the insurances I'd added were under Irregular Expenses instead of
Committed Expenses like the other Insurance items. I'm not sure why it split
them up, but oh well.

Thanks for the help!

"Insurance: [all other]" would only pick up items categorized under
Insurance, but with no subcategory. Are you using an advanced budget?
money://navigate/newadvbgt
Type that into address in money. It should let you add the
subcategories you've added. At least in 2007 deluxe it lets me.

Default Budget Problem - [all other] Categories

I setup a budget last night and ran into an issue. I have categories under
Insurance for Dental, Vision, etc. These aren't options to add in my budget
like Health and Personal Accident are, so I added the "Insurance: [all
other]" item assuming it captures any sub item under Insurance that's not
already an individual item in the budget.

For some reason I get no actual amounts for the "Insurance: [all other]"
item though. I can verify amounts are going to these sub categories from my
paycheck properly via other reports, viewing that sub categories
transactions, etc.

Is my assumption of what the [all other] items are incorrect? Or has anyone
else seen this potential bug?
