I want ability to add a one off committed or expected spend so it shows in my budget. Eg I have a holiday budget and I have a holiday booked for the end of the month. The payment for accommodation doesn’t get charged until the date of travel but I would like my budget to reflect that for the holiday bucket there is already a portion committed

Bringing this back to life, I have 3 (relatively large) commited spends this month. I’ve had to fudge it by creating a recurring payment from a past transaction just to force the commited spend to be correct.

You can also create committed from offline accounts. 😉

why do they need to be created in offline accounts when its commited spend from “online” accounts?
