I believe, if ‘m understanding you correctly, that this would solve your first issue. But I don’t have a timeline for it yet.

Regarding un-distributing funds, you should be able to do a “negative” distribution. If you specify the amount as negative when you’re distributing from Unallocated, that will put money back into unallocated.

So I would too concur with Brian, there is no option to sweep from one envelope to another at the end of the month even automatically (though it can already be done by doing a simple envelope to envelope transaction).

The other option is for some people they might want to have their remaining extra funds returned to the un-allocated funds for reallocation at a later time possibly, that is not yet possible either.

There is in fact a Sweep option. Select the “Specify…” option when adding money to your envelopes, specify the actions you want to use and then pick a Sweep envelope. You can Remember the refill and apply it again in the future. Hope this helps!

For example, if I had a budget for gas, groceries, and credit card, and at the end of the pay period I had a little left in the gas and grocery envelopes, I could refill all of the envelopes to their starting points and the amount that was previously left in the envelopes would be swept into the credit card envelope. Could you possibly do something like this?
