Use of Tournament Dollars

There has to be some way to program using the tournament dollars that you have for buy-ins first, and then using your actual balance to cover the rest, yes? I’ve been playing all of the bigger tournaments every day and the occasional satellite on the side, so I’ve accumulated some tournament dollars by bubbling those, but they never get used when I buy into tournaments. They simply sit in my account and I’ll never be able to use them until I bubble another satellite so I have more tournament dollars, or I play a very low buy-in tournament.
