Savings goals

Create savings goals with a target amount and date, link them to accounts or contributions, and track progress without treating saved money as spending.

Built – unverified (prelaunch). Human certification pending.

What this does

A goal has a name, target amount, optional target date, and a funding source: a linked account balance or tracked contributions.

Moving money into a goal account is a transfer, not spending. Investment growth in a linked account counts toward the goal balance as a valuation, not as income.

How to

Create a goal

  1. 1Personal → Plan → Goals → New goal.
  2. 2Enter name, target, and optional date.
  3. 3Link an account or choose tracked contributions.
  4. 4Save. Progress and the monthly amount needed appear.

Corrections, voids, and reversals

  • Edit target or date anytime; progress recalculates. Unlinking an account stops counting its balance.

Audit trail

  • Goal changes record who and when.

Availability and provider notes

  • Built – unverified: this workflow exists in the prelaunch product but has not yet completed human certification. Review results before relying on them.
  • KontoCore Personal and WealthKraft organize your own records. They do not give investment, tax, or financial advice and do not place trades or move money.

Permissions

  • Household owners and members with edit access can change records; view-only members and trusted helpers see only what their scope allows.

What happens in your books

Goals never create transactions; they read balances and contributions.

Common mistakes

  • Linking the same account to several goals and expecting each to get the full balance.
