I get it, the beginning expense is already in Aug correct? I know you want to slide it to Sep where the back end money for the trip is. My point is it is silly for the company to say you can only slide Front end Expenses back since that is no slide at all. It has been about 5 years but I have slid front end expenses forward, I bought a round trip and tied it to the next months DH.
I hope the union kept a copy of all of the old help files on Fox. It would not be the first time the company has changed the rules in association with changing the FAQ answers.

The restriction is on an expense that is outside the 3-day grace period at the start or end of the bid period and is before a carryover trip. That expense cannot be slid forward into the next month. It says only back-end expenses outside the 3-day end of bid period window associated with a carry-over trip can be slid backwards to the previous month.
As I told my friend, I'm almost positive there has been such a restriction on front end carryover expense sliding forward in place for years. I remember looking up and finding guidance on carryover trip expense slides in the FOX system tutorials, so it's not something that just happened. This was years ago and I remember finding it strange that slides were allowed one way but not the other. It would just be nice to have the old guidance for reference as you said.
