Accounting 101 Question...

Kathryn See

Is there a way that I can stop my planning budget from exceeding my income? Like an alert or something? At the very least, It would be helpful for the overage to be in red. How does everyone else stop from budgeting expenses when there are no funds available? When I catch it, I transfer funds from my savings to cover spending…but I don't always catch it. And I keep a healthy cushion in my checking to avoid this. But that's why I do a budget to begin with!
