One further thought: treating rewards as a negative expense will mask the true
cost of whatever was purchased. If you stop using your rewards card, suddenly
your apparent expenses will go up.
Both professionally and personally I generally prefer to not muddy expense
accounts with negative
Because the rewards aren’t necessarily attributable to any one expense (or to
split them out proportionately would be a whole lot of work), I always book
them to miscellaneous income. I also include that income when I budget.
Hope that helps,

I apologize in advance if the answers to these questions are painfully obvious.
I have tried to read the resources provided but no luck so far.
I set up my budget with 12 periods (months) - each item is simply 1/12th of the
annual total.

Firstly, thanks to those who have offered advice already. I am still trying to
get my Citi credit card transactions to download and having no success.
I have tried what is in the Wiki, plus Colin’s suggestions and those posted
previously by Nicholas Rood. When I request the account list from
Hi Colin,
Thanks for the additional info and encouragement. I’m still experimenting
here… One puzzle: what did you use for Client UID? I do see what the Wiki
says about it but I still don’t understand. FWIW, I’m on a Mac OS environment…
