Budgeting
You can add groups and accounts, and you know where a new row will land before you click.
Both buttons place the new row relative to what is currently selected, which is why selection matters before clicking:
| Button | Places the new row | | ----------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | **Group** | in the selected category | | **Account** | in the selected account's group; or in the selected group; or, if neither, in the category's first group |
That last fallback is the usual cause of "it appeared in the wrong place". Select the group you want first and the question does not arise.
**Group** is disabled until a category is selected, and **Account** until the category has at least one group — an account has nowhere to go otherwise.
Select the category, click **Group** in the toolbar, and name it.
Select the group — or an account already in it — and click **Account**.
The new account arrives with a number already assigned — [numbering](/kb/article/number-accounts-and-groups) keeps itself in order as the budget grows.
Then [fill it in](/kb/article/edit-a-budget-account).
**Moving rows afterwards.** Rows are dragged rather than cut and pasted, and only within their own level: an account can move to another group, a subaccount to another account — see [copy and reorder budget rows](/kb/article/copy-and-reorder-budget-rows).
