Default Budget question

I am using Money 2004 Trial edition and have following question:

(figures are chosen for illustration purpose)

Let's say that my budgeted total monthly spending is 100 and income 110. So
Money correctly indicates that my budget is in balance and that the monthly
saving is 10, or, a total budget surplus this year of 10 x 12 = 120.

Now, at the end of january, my actual spending is 120 (iso 100 budgeted) and
actual income 110. So 20 extra was spent in january. However, the yearly
budget still indicates a surplus of 120.

Isn't there a way to 'close off' the month january and recalculate so that
based on the actual spending of january and the remaining of the year
budgeted, the yearly surplus would be 100 iso 120????

Thanks in advance,
Ben
