Is there a way to create a budget for each person and consolidate, i.e. my wife and me?

I want to track individually some categories, for example, clothing, health, etc, others at a general level, groceries, etc.
Is this possible?
I am using Tag to track spending by person, for example.
Any idea?
Thanks

    You can't use tags in budgets.  You can create multiple budgets with different categories/accounts.

    Back when I was using Quicken's budgeting process there were a few things where I wanted to budget at a "spouse" level and I accomplished that rather simply by using SubCategories as needed, e.g, "Medical/Husband" and "Medical/Wife", and categorizing the costs appropriately.  I don't see the need for separate budgets unless you're trying to budget every single expense and income that way.
