Can't delete budget categories under "Budget:Misc" because they have balances?
Posted: Sun Feb 27, 2011 10:52 am
I am trying to delete two old categories under the "Budget:Miscellaneous" category because we aren't using them anymore.
However, I'm getting an error message:
The category has one more more non-zero balances and cannot be made inactive until all balances are zero.
Balance(s) found:
${my balance}
Before MLS 3.3.1 I would transferred money out of this category into a different category.
But now that we have MLS 3.3.1, the Budget:* categories no longer show up on the Income and Expense report and I'm not sure which categories have balances and which ones done.
Should I just transfer the amount the error message is showing me? Or is there a better way with MLS 3.3.1?
Should I also try to figure out these hidden balances of all my budget categories and transfer the money out of them?
I guess I understood things 99.9% using the transfers and income and expense report... but now with MLS 3.3.1 I'm having a hard time wrapping my brain around this again.
Thanks~!
