Instead of using only one transaction each month and splitting the amounts
why don't you record each cash transaction separately, just like any other
register (checking, for instance)? This way you can balance the account
like any other. It should balance out to whatever money (cash) you have in
your pocket.

What is your setting for Tools: Options: Categories: 'Require the correct

expense categories.

I just balance the account periodically to the cash in my pocket and let
Money adjust the account and declare the difference as

Hello, I am trying to keep track of my cash transactions
on Money 2000. I have been recording my cash withdrawals
each month and with each withdrawal, I enter all of the
things purchased with cash that month using the split.
This allows me to categorize my cash purchases. However, I
may not spend all of the money I withdrew that month, or I
may spend more than I withdrew (using money I had leftover
from the previous months). What are the best ways to
record this? I have been putting the amount that is
leftover in the cash unaccounted for category, using
either a plus or minus <#> , but Money does not like minus
numbers in the expense catagory. And when looking up the
report, Money has not recorded that minus sum for that
month. If you have any ideas, or have other questions,
please let me know ASAP. Thank you. TCMdoc1[at]juno.com
