I have a list of savings categories that I would like to hide from monthly budget, but still need to see in Savings Budget. How can I do this?

Any downsides with labeling these savings categories as “Transfer”? That does seem to solve my issue with wanting to not see them on monthly budget, but still see them on savings budget. Just not sure if that creates other complications.

I thought this was a great solution that might work for you also:

A quick and easy workaround for this is that in my Categories tab, I have several different variations on my “Hide from Reports” column based on various views I want, with different Hidden categories. When I want to look at a different view, I just rename that column “Hide from Reports” and it already has the correct category types hidden and the P&L will dynamically up…
