Setting Up Seasonal Income

If your income from a source isn't the same every month — think a holiday-driven Etsy shop, tax season contract work, or a summer side gig — answer "yes" to **Is this income seasonal or does it take place during a limited time?** when setting up or editing that source. That wording also covers a fixed-term contract or project that only runs part of the year, not just income that swings up and down seasonally.

Instead of splitting your annual target evenly across 12 months, this lets you set a specific income target for each month (January through December). Flux uses your rate settings to pre-fill a starting estimate, and you can adjust any month up or down — the total for the year stays balanced against your goal.

This is available for Hourly and Projects / Contract Work sources. For Salary sources, it's only available when Commission is turned on, since salary itself is fixed — the seasonal variation applies to the commission portion.
