I have a clearer example... I have a bucket for monthly parking expenses. Generally, I allocate $175 a month and write a check that drains that bucket. One month, I had an extra parking-related expense for $100. I assigned that transaction to the Parking bucket (which left the balance at -$100). It was a work-related expense, so I got reimbursed as part of my pay during the next month. I manually moved $100 from my Salary bucket to the Parking bucket to zero out that expense. Then, when I went to allocate my income, MoneyWell calculated that it only needed to put $75 into the Parking bucket. My question is: Did I use this software incorrectly? I expected MW to allocate $175 for Parking since the bucket was at $0 and not include that other transfer. Thanks for clearing this up.
