How to Add a New Budget Item

Updated

You can add a new Budget Item to any Budget Group on EveryDollar.com. Follow the steps below.

  1. Navigate to the bottom of the Budget Group in which you'd like to add a Budget Item.

  2. Click Add Item to add a new Budget Item inside a Budget Group. This will create a blank item with a name box.
     

  3. Type the name you would like the Budget Item to be called, then hit return/enter on your keyboard. The "Planned" amount will now be selected for editing.

 

Your new Budget Item now appears at the bottom of the Budget Group. To move it, see How to Rearrange Budget Items.

 Pro Tip: If you have already created a future month's budget, your new Budget Items will not automatically carry forward. You will need to reset a future month's budget to reflect changes.

 

Next Steps

Your Budget Item is ready. Open EveryDollar and set a Planned amount to start tracking against it.
