Auto-assign targets

Targets define how much a category needs this month. Auto-assign applies those gaps in one click.

Target types

  • Refill up to: the gap is based on Available.
  • Set aside: the gap is based on Assigned.

Both target types can be auto-assigned if enabled.

Example

Target $500, Available $350 (Refill up to).

Gap = $150

Step-by-step

  1. Set a monthly target on a category.
  2. Enable Include in monthly auto-assign.
  3. Open the Auto-assign Targets panel.
  4. Select the categories you want to fund.
  5. Apply selected targets for the month.

Due days and behind schedule

Due days spread a target across the month. Behind schedule compares where you should be today.

Required by today = Target amount * progress to due date

Use cases

  • Monthly bills: auto-fund rent and utilities in seconds.
  • Goal savings: apply your set-aside targets consistently.
  • Busy months: avoid manual entry for every category.

Troubleshooting

  • Category not listed: target is disabled or out of range.
  • Gap is zero: Available or Assigned already meets the target.
  • Safe to spend stays low: obligations and goals still have gaps.
