Add a transaction

A future date makes it a scheduled transaction — it enters the projection and never touches the balance; when its date arrives, “Post due items” (Recurring tab) posts it. Uncheck “update balance” when entering history the balance already reflects.

DescriptionCategoryAccountAmountMonthlyEveryNextEndsPays downOn

Add a recurring item

Wages are Income on your checking account. A school or car payment is an Expense; if it pays a tracked debt, pick the debt under “pays down” and both balances move together. “Post due items” turns every due occurrence into real transactions and advances the next date.

DescriptionDateCostAccountFitOn

Add a planned purchase

Fit checks the projected balance from the purchase date to the end of the horizon against your cushion. Toggle “On” to see the picture with or without it.

Add an account

For credit cards and loans, enter the amount owed as a positive number — it is stored as a negative balance so your net worth adds up. Use nicknames, never real account numbers.

Backup & restore

The export holds every account, transaction, recurring item, planned purchase, and the cushion setting — enough to rebuild Budget Planner from scratch. Restoring into a non-empty app replaces everything (you'll be asked first). Erasing asks first too, and offers a backup download on the way out.
