Not every dollar in your accounts is available to fund your goals.
Setting excluded cash balances allows you to remove specific funds or entire accounts from Dynamic MyGOALS calculations, ensuring that money set aside for a particular purpose remains protected.
This helps create a more accurate picture of the funds genuinely available for achieving goals.
