 Re: Split category problems You should create an account for your credit card. Then when you make charges during the month - enter them into you credit card account. Realize the expense when you make the charge - not when you make the payment from checking to credit card.

Enter a $200 interest expense transaction. Make the payment be a $300 credit card payment or a transfer. The $100 difference is not an expense. The expenditure of that $100 was made when you bought something. |

| Split category problems When I enter my credit card payment in my checking account file, I want to split the categories so I can itemize what I purchased on my credit cards. However, the amounts I spent are different than amount of payment. i.e payment $200, charges on the statement $300 or payment is $300 and only charge during the month was a finance charge. From what I see the program always wants category charges to equal the payment Is there another way to track the categories for expenditures on a credit card as well as the payments? Can anyone help with this? |
