Basically, if you have any period\ -transactions in your ledger file, you can use these options. A period\ -transaction looks like:\ -\ -@example\ -~ Monthly\ - Assets:Bank:Checking $500.00\ - Income:Salary\ -@end example\ -\ -The difference from a regular transaction is that the first line begins with\ -a tilde (~), and instead of a payee there's a period expression\ -(@ref\{Period expressions\}). Otherwise, a period transaction is in every\ -other way the same as a regular transaction.\ -\ -With such a transaction in your ledger file, the @option\{--budget\} option\ -will report only postings that match a budgeted account. Using\ -@file\{sample.dat\} from above:\ -\ -@example\ -ledger --budget reg ^income\ -@end example\ -\ -Reports:\ -\ -@smallexample\ -2004/05/01 Budget transaction Income:Salary $500.00 $500.00\ -2004/05/14 Pay day Income:Salary $-500.00 0\ -@end smallexample\ -\ -The final total is zero, indicating that the budget matched epostly\ -for the reported period.
