I'm trying to create a budget and am having some issues with setting it up. I have a liability for car loan and expense for interest for that loan.
I pay out of the checking account, say 500. I split to the Liability loan 200 and expense interest 300. In a spreadsheet I would budget out 500 for the car payment. However, Gnucash is not set up this way (or I have it wrong). The liability payment is a negative entry in the budget and the expense is a positive value. The same in the "budget report" created. The help docs are not very helpful, nor are internet searches. Most in the end, state to use a separate spreadsheet for budgeting. Which I have been doing for many years, but figured I'd give it another try as it's been about 9 years.
