It would be awesome if the Debt Progress sheet would talk to our Categories sheet to auto-populate the monthly payment by account. Making sure we always are budgeting our debt payoff strategy accurately…thoughts? Idea? Anyone coding brainiac do this yet?

This is an interesting idea, @brandonscottgardner. If you move forward with this, I’d recommend:

- Building off the new [Debt Planner](https://community.tiller.com/t/using-the-debt-planner-prototype-sheet/6100) instead of Debt Progress
- Pulling the data from the hidden calculations on the Debt Planner rather than the main table which changes frequently
