Karin It is not an expense but a liability. When you open the Budget you can expand the liability accounts and enter budget amounts against the liability account for the loan/mortgage at the period the payments are due. If necessary you can change the budget interval to suit.
A reduction in the balance of a liability account is a debit to it and a credit to your bank account just as when you enter an expense the increase in expenses is recorded as a debit and credit to the bank account.
