Rollover & copy-forward
Carrying budget between pay periods.
finura uses pay-period budgeting — your budget follows how you actually get paid, not just the calendar month. Two tools keep it moving between periods: rollover and copy-forward.
Rollover
Rollover carries a category's leftover (or overage) into the next period.
- Underspent a category? The remainder rolls in, so a good month funds a future one.
- Overspent? The overage carries as a negative, so you make it up rather than pretend it didn't happen.
Toggle rollover per category.
Copy-forward
Copy-forward starts a new period from your last one, so you're not budgeting from a blank page each time. Your category targets copy over; you adjust only what changed.
Move money
Within a period, move money shifts budget from one category to another without losing history — the classic "take $30 from Travel to cover Dining."
The point of these three tools is that a budget survives contact with real life instead of breaking the first time you overspend.
