Can I choose one account to pay a particular expense?

Where to find it: EXPENSES

Ordinary expenses enter the owner’s cash flow. They do not have a general field assigning each bill to one particular bank or investment account. TIME MACHINE uses income and withdrawals, then resolves any remaining deficit through withdrawal PRIORITIES.

To plan a withdrawal from a specific account, add a separate entry in AUTOMATIC SAVINGS and WITHDRAWALS. To use an account first whenever money is needed, change withdrawal PRIORITIES instead. The final report can include other cash-flow adjustments, so a planned withdrawal is not an earmarked payment trail.

Education expenses linked to an RESP and eligible medical expenses linked to a U.S. HSA are special cases with account-specific treatment. Select those links on the expense when they apply.
