Your money goes to the allocation. You spend only what is in the allocation. If you don’t have enough, you are not able to do it.
If you are spending every penny every month then you are at a disadvantage because you won’t build up greater amounts.
IE, $400 a month but only spend 2-300. You can afford bigger purchases every so often.

You could wait till next month then make the big purchase.. or if you know the big purchase is coming save for it in the previous months.
It defeats the purpose of the budget if you are spending next months money before you have it. Or going into debt; when you should have an emergency fund.

So there's no way to make a large purchase using multiple months? I try not to dip into other spending categories
No. The whole point of YNAB is not spending money you don't have yet.
