These are two different questions. As to the first, budget categories and
expense categories should be flip sides of the same coin--your historic
spending for Food:Groceries should, for instance, be used by Auto Budget to
predict future spending in that category.
Budget Groups and Category groups, however, are essentially useless and
meaningless. See
http://umpmfaq.info/faqdb.php?q=20 for pretty much
everything that we collectively know about budget groups vs. category
groups.
