Default override auto budget figures?

I'm having a similar problem with an outgoing expense. I
have a bill set up for £253 that goes out once a month on
the first day of the month. When I get to the final
budget, it tells me it's budgeted for £506, rather than
£253. This means that my budget expenses are always £253
more than they should be. Not sure how to cure this.

Default override auto budget figures?

Hello. I'm trying to set up a budget in Money 02, but the
auto budget keeps insisting my income is more than what
it actually is.

I have my income set up in Bills & Deposits as a twice
monthly deposit (I also tried setting it up as "every two
weeks" but got the same error in the budget.) Let's say
the deposit is $5000 two times per month. The budget
Money is forcing on me insists my monthly income should
be $15,000, and therefore it shows that the correct total
of $10,000 is $5,000 off.

No matter how you cut it, a $5,000 deposit made twice a
month totals $10,000, regardless of the amount of weeks
in a particular month (I might understand this problem if
I'd set up the deposit as "every two weeks", but it's set
up as "twice a month.")

I'm a fairly advanced Money user but I cannot find any
way to override this $15,000 figure. Any suggestions out
there? Any keyboard short cuts for overriding these auto
budget figures? Thanks in advance.
