 The simplest way to track preexisting credit card debt in Actual is to create a **Credit Card** category and set it to **Rollover overspending**. When you add your existing starting balance and any preexisting transactions to your credit card account you need to ensure that the category of those transactions is set to **Credit Card**. That way you can at any time look at the **Credit Card** category balance to see the status of your preexisting debt, and you can ensure that it's getting smaller over time.
 
-Each month when you do your budgeting, _after_ you've accounted for all other necessary expense categories, you allocate however much you want to pay down on that debt into the **Budgeted** column of the **Credit Card** category. Then when you go to pay your credit card bill you can easily find out how much you should actually pay by taking the **Credit Card** account balance and turning it positive and then adding the current **Credit Card** category balance to it. If your account balance is -5500 and your category balance is -4500 then you know that you need to pay off 5500 - 4500 = 1000. This amount will be greater than what you had put into the **Budgeted** column in case you're simultaneously following the [Within the Budget](./index.md) strategy of pre-funding new credit card purchases, and you can without worries pay off the calculated amount knowing that the money has already been explicitly set aside for this specific bill.
