<p>Yes, nothing has changed in the mixed interval budgeting relating to loan accounts. That should still be able to track loan payments.</p>
<p>Thanks,<br>

<p>I took another look at the current mixed interval budget on windows build 1888 and the budgeting tool is picking up the payments to credit cards. Not sure when that was fixed for windows, but after many months I just started using a work around method. So it seems to work now. Thanks. You can't track account to account activity on the new style budget because the accounts are not listed to select. On the loan payments for the new style, you can't pick up the principle paid probably because you can't select the account, but the interest does show up. On the old style budget, you can select the loan account and you do get the principle amount, but you have to deal with the loan interest separately which does not allow you to budget a certain payment amount since the principle and interest changes each month. So it's a mixed bag on tracking loans. But it seems that a simple account to account transfer is trackable now using the mixed interval method. But not available on the new style. Thanks, Mike</p></div>mhoggietag:infinitekind.tenderapp.com,2009-01-14:Comment/475573832019-08-28T00:38:29Z2019-08-28T00:38:29ZBudgeting loan payments differ in function in Windows vs Mac distributions<div><p>Sean,</p>
<p>Let me amend my observations. You still can't budget payments to a credit card. Although you do pick up some amounts on the budget reports. The amount is the sum of all payments and credits to that credit card. Not just the payment. Not sure if that is the same issue on the MAC version. But JR seemed to indicate that it was working on his MAC. But its not on Windows. (Windows 7 64bit build 1888)<br>
Thanks Mike</p></div>mhoggietag:infinitekind.tenderapp.com,2009-01-14:Comment/475573832019-08-28T10:16:14Z2019-08-28T10:16:14ZBudgeting loan payments differ in function in Windows vs Mac distributions<div><p>Hi Mike,</p>
<p>Yes, omitting credit card transfers from the budgets is intentional because<br>
if you could budget the credit card payments as well as the actual spending<br>
from a card then you'd be counting those expenses twice: once in their<br>
category and once when paying off the card.</p>
<p>Thanks,<br>
