Hi Debbie,

Sorry for the trouble with entering your estimated income. Did you enter the right frequency that you receive the amount you entered? If you entered a weekly amount, but picked monthly, it might be slightly off due to the number of weeks available in the month. Don’t worry though, the estimated income is used *only* on the Edit Budget page to help you create a budget. You’ll be able to enter your actual income amount when you fill your Envelopes each budget period.

Hi Francesca – Sorry for the troubles! Which platform are you using? Can you try changing your budget period on the website? You can do that by clicking on Add/Edit on the Envelopes tab (https://goodbudget.com/envelope/edit). Then, you’ll use the {Primary) drop down menu to select your budget period. Be sure to save your changes when you’re done.

Hi Ben – Good question! You can give your Annual Envelope a due date for when you’d like it to renew each year. For example, if the due date is August 1, the Envelope will renew on August 1 each year. To add a due date, click on Add/Edit while on the Envelopes tab and click on Edit beside the Envelope you’d like to give a due date. Be sure to save any changes when you’re done.

Hi Carey – To reset your Envelopes for the 1st, you’ll want to Refill them. You can do that on the website by clicking on Fill Envelopes (https://goodbudget.com/envelopes/fill). Then, enter your paycheck amount and use the Quick-Fill drop-down menu to apply the same changes to all of your Envelopes. Shoot us an email at support@goodbudget.com if you’re still having trouble.

Hi Mike,

You can refill your Envelopes for the new month by clicking on the Fill Envelopes button. Just check off the “Schedule this…” check box before you save the the Fill so that it’ll automatically post.
