Hello. I would like to set up a separate travel budget that includes expenses from the credit card that is also tracked in my primary budget. I want to keep these expenses out of my household budget. Please help! Thank you!

    A bit more info would be helpful.

    Why do you want to keep the travel budget separate? Are these, perhaps, reimbursable business expenses?

    If so, you can create a banking type "Receivables" account and use that as the transfer/category for these reimbursable expenses. Then, when you get the reimbursement, you record it as coming from "Receivables".

    Transfers aren't expenses, so unless you choose to include transfers in your budget, they won't be included.
