Entering Budget Values

[Matt Graham]

Hi Bruce!

Have you established your account hierarchy? The budget view should mirror your normal account hierarchy and allow you to enter values against each time period. So when you say ‘no cells’, do you mean you can see the accounts on the left and the periods along the top?

Additionally, do you have any hidden accounts? The default is no, so this shouldn’t be the problem, but accounts can be hidden so you don’t see them which could theoretically be why you aren’t seeing the cells.

Finally, are you Windows? There is a bug in windows whereby the display can be incredibly slow to respond. I have to click on a cell and wait almost a minute (no joke) before I can enter the value....

Thanks and regards,

Matt

Subject: Entering Budget Values

Today is my first day with GnuCash and everything was going well until I tried to enter budgets for my accounts. I have selected 2018 as my time frame (12 periods). ‘Help’ says all I have to do is select a cell (month) and enter the value but I don’t have any cells. Where have I gone wrong?
