Budget Totals

[David T.]

I'm sorry, but it seems we are speaking at cross purposes. You started by raising an issue with budgets, but your most recent message implied that you were encountering inconsistencies in entered transactions, when you said,  "not even the checking account is adding and subtracting correctlly." My remark regarding accuracy was specifically in reference to that last part. If I misunderstood what you meant by that, then I apologize. 
It seems that you are looking for a budgeting tool. Gnucash, as an accounting application primarily, focuses on tracking existing transactions. The budgeting features were added at a later point. Gnucash's accounting feature set is more mature than those for budgeting. 
Since it appears that you are more interested in budgeting, you might be better served by a different application. 
HTH,David
