My ward has a number of budgets under the "Other Assignments" section in the Manage Categories section on the Budget page. But when I go to the Budget Summary section, those items in the "Other Assignments" do not show up. How can I see the balances of those budgets?

Although those categories are managed with the other budget categories, they are not actually part of the ward budget. Those are for activity payments from participants and associated activity expenses. They can't be allocated funds from the budget allocation so they don't show up on the budget screens.

In order to see the current balance and transactions for those categories you need to use the Overview > Income and Expense Summary menu option. On that screen, click on the arrow next to 'Other' to see the subcategories. Click on any of the sub-category names in order to see the deposits and expenses for that sub-category.

Additionally, any "Other" subcategory listed in the "Other Assignments" section will have a status listed to the far right. If it shows as 'Inactive' then the balance is zero since it must have a zero balance to be placed in an inactive status (or rather deselect 'active' status). No word displayed in that far right column means it is active. Any attempt to place the category with anything other than a zero balance will result in an error message being displayed that states: "Unit subcategories under Other must remain active until balance is zero." Follow the information provided by eblood66 in his post just before this post to view the 'active' category balance.
