Hi Alexander,
It’s true that the the Spending vs Budget report in Goodbudget shows a different view of your transaction data using the actual amounts spent rather than the percentages. You can see the actual difference between the green and orange bars and where there is a significant difference, you can choose to make a change. This offers the same function as seeing the percentage, and users have told us seeing the actual difference is more helpful than knowing the percent difference. We understand that this isn’t the way you’ve been calculating whether or not you need to change your budget, but hope it makes sense why we made the change to display amounts. It sounds like it would be most helpful to show both the amount and percentage–I’ve added this to our requested features tracker.

For example i have an entertaiment envelope with anuual budget 1200$.
I can open EEBA Expense vs Budget report and see that for last 12 month current expense in %s is 80% for my annual budget. After i see it i know, that can decrease my envelope budget to 90%.
I gett my 1200$ divide by 100 and multiply by 90 = 1080$ now i know that my new annual budget for entertaiment envelope will be 900$.

In goodbudget it much harder manipulation for each envelope.
I must open Spending vs Budget report for last 12 month and see that my entertaiment envelope expense is 960$.
Next i must divide 960$ by 1200$=80%. Only after this i know that s my envelope 12 month expense is 80% of my annual budget, and if i have 10 envelopes i must do this manupulation on every envelope to compare which envelope budget i can decrease and increase another. It is very inconvenient for me and i dont’t want to this manipulation manually, уspecially after I have successfully used this feature in EEBA

I’ve already asked you to something like checkbot to change view from numbers view to %s or make possible to view both of this in one report. But past 9 month you do nothing

I know that it’s not hard to make additional checkbox to change view, but you want do it.

I am very disappointed by your decision to close EEBA before doing normal analogue report in goodbudget.

Thank you for explaining this. After looking at it I can see why I was confused but it is very easy to use.

Hi Susan,

You can add your income directly to your Envelopes by clicking on the “Fill Envelopes” button. By default, you’ll be able to Fill from New Income. There, you can choose which Envelopes you want to fill and with how much. Here’s a link to our Help Center that explains how to do it: http://help.goodbudget.com/customer/portal/articles/1424262-fill-envelopes-from-income
