Creating a budget

[David Stibbe]

Hi,

I'm stelly pretty inexperienced in gnu-cash: I've been using it for
about 2 months now. Although everything seems to work for me, I just
can't seem to get the following done:

I have one savings account on which I set money aside on a monthly
basis. This money is meant for later purchases. E.g. a new computer of
about 1000 euros, for which I set aside 150 a month and a new tv of
about 600 euros, for which I set aside 50 a month: I want to be able
to track how much there has been saved for the computer and how much
for the tv. (There are accounting terms for this, I know, but I have
no idea which ones.)  I did follow some instructions in the manual
about budgets but that didn't quite do what I wanted it to do. Does
anyoine have a good suggestion on how to accomplish this?


kind regards,
David
