Rollover & Targets
Rollover Modes
Section titled “Rollover Modes”Each category has a rollover mode that controls what happens to remaining budget at month end:
- Carry Forward — Surplus or deficit carries over to the next month
- Release to Pool — Surplus or deficit adjusts the overall Ready to Assign total
- Reset — Clean slate each month; no rollover
Set rollover mode per category in category settings, or override it for a specific month.
Category Targets
Section titled “Category Targets”Set a target amount and type for each category:
- Budget target — Aim to budget this amount each month
- Refill target — Always refill to this amount regardless of rollover
Targets provide visual guidance when allocating budgets.
When To Use Each Mode
Section titled “When To Use Each Mode”- Use Carry Forward for categories that naturally accumulate over time
- Use Release to Pool when you want unused money to flow back into your overall budget
- Use Reset for categories that should start fresh each month
