Flow of money

Primary Checking - how money comes in

When money is deposited into your Primary Checking, Otto automatically puts it into  your Income Account.  As a result, when you receive income,  the balance in your Income Account goes up accordingly.

See the illustrations below to understand how this works.

In this example, $2,000 is deposited into your checking account.

Primary Checking - how money goes out

When money comes out of your Primary Checking it comes directly out of your Bills Account, which is your Main sub-account.  As a result, when your bills are paid the balance in your Bills Account goes down accordingly.  

 

See the illustrations below to understand how this works.

 

In this example, $300 comes out of your Primary Checking.
