Funding budgets - add expected amount to help prevent overspending
It’s very handy to know what came out of a funding source, and the total amount allocated to that funding source. If you could add a field on a funding schedule to specify the “expected amount”, then you can use this to help you determine what’s left when allocating expenses and goals to a funding schedule.
For example, if my schedule is on the 1st and 15th with a specified expected amount (eg my expected paycheck), and I allocate 5 expenses and 1 goal to it. Each of those will have an allocation amount, and DAS adds that up for me, but I would love to see DAS do the math for me so I know if I’m over spending my funding source by allocating too much from what’s expected. I could then change my goal target date or look to change my expenses to ensure I’m not overspending my funding.
Currently I have to know what I’m expecting from that funding source (eg paycheck) and then subtract from what DAS added up for me. This feature request is to just take this one step further by having DAS help me budget better or warn me when my funding source may be close to being overspent from the estimated/expected deposit amount.
