Spending Plan - Expense Graphs

Question

Why is there no Spending Plan graph for Cable TV (set up as a Recurring item) while Auto-Gas (not set up as a Recurring Item) has a graph?  The Cable TV expense transactions appear in the Transaction activity.

Transaction Activity

Auto - Gas (not set up as a Recurring Expense)

Love the program but I'm still learning!

Hello @WMG3,

My mistake. I see that your 'Cable TV' category is set up as a Recurring Expense as you mentioned. Recurring transactions will not be counted towards a Planned Spending expense that uses the same Category. This support article explains in more detail here:

I hope this makes sense!
