IMPROVEMENT: Bring forward budget balance/deficit to next period!

Hello! It would be absolutely useful if we can set budgets to begin on a certain date and have budget excess/deficit brought forward to the next month.

For example, I set a monthly budget of $500, beginning January 2015. At the end of the month, I've spent $400.It'll be great if there is an option to bring forward to remaining balance of $100 to the next month of February, so I would have $600 to spend in February. Likewise if I overspent by $100, February budget would be reduced to $400.

Please do consider adding this feature! It's the only feature I see lacking as compared to other personal finance apps before I get a family account.

Best regards,
Sam

yes, definitely! Both rollover and options on monthly variable budgets to accommodate 4 or 5 Monday months.
I just increased my January budget, and it increased my December budget too.

There should be flexibility to change budget each month. If my budget for September is 20000 INR that may varry next month in any category. Now if I change next month budget my previous month budget also getting effected.
