Hi
I have recently started to use moneydance but I am struggling with doing a budget as I am paid on the 15th of every month. Ideally I would like to do a monthly budget but from paycheck to paycheck... is there a way to do this? Or does anyone have any suggestions to help manage this / get around this?
Thanks :)

    just a user,

    Use the Old Style Mixed Interval Period to set up your budget. Then you can define all the parameters. But you might find using the Foresight Forecast is better to watch your balances. You can monitor your checking account and use your future payment/income reminders to forecast your balance to create a graph showing your predicted balance over time. I now use that method to monitor my budget more than the balance feature itself.
