Problems with budget...

Just started using the desktop version today.. I am confused re the budget.

I have set up my budget categories and assigned the amount of money I have available to spend in each category.

I then began entering transactions for the account and assigned each transaction to the appropriate category.

In one category only I have a weekly expenses of £30. The total budget available for my budget period is £161, the actual expense will be £160.40, however, my budget is showing: Expense: £0... Expected Expense £250.40 ....Budgeted expense: £161.

I have right clicked to see all the transactions associated with the category and it shows up the £30 x 5 plus one at £10.40 total of £160.40 - I cannot figure out why the category is showing an expected expense of an additional £90.

Any ideas?

Thanks
Emma

One or more transactions probably have a frequency and the next occurrences due in that period are added to the budgeted expense.
