Does TIME MACHINE start today or on January 1?
Where to find it: TIME MACHINE
The ordinary projection starts from the run date with the current balances entered in your scenario. Its first year covers the remaining part of the calendar year, so ongoing incomes, expenses and other dated flows are prorated for that period. Later years normally cover full calendar years.
Use Year Check-in to see the elapsed part of the current year alongside the remaining-year projection. Its YTD and Full-year reports can combine estimated or supplied past activity with the projection from today. Improve Check-in lets you enter actual year-to-date information.
When comparing the first row with later years, check whether it represents YTD, the rest of the year or a full year. A small first-year withdrawal can simply reflect a shorter period.
