Why do the Bills + Subscriptions + Transfers not add up correctly in the Spending Plan?

I can't make sense of why these don't add up to the total on the left for Bills. Am I not understanding something? Where did the $5949.81 come from?

    Hmm. Mine are adding up right and I checked my spending plans back until January as well. This may be a momentary glitch. Did you try logging off and logging back on?

    Did you check to see if there is some hidden bill or subscription? That shouldn't be the case but I have found at times that something didn't get immediately counted.

    I assume the $5949.81 amount is not in line with your usual monthly bills?

    Hope it doesn't last long. It is disconcerting.

    BTW, did you check to see if it is wrong in the phone app too?

    One other thing to check is to see if you accidentally set a custom Bill amount, which would override the calculation.

    Go to the 3 vertical dots to the top right to check. The menu looks like this:

    It was something to do with transfers. Both sides of a transfer were set to be excluded from spending plan but one side of it was still being added to the total on the left regardless of the setting. The list on the right was correct. I re-toggled the exclude from spending plan on both sides of the transfer and that corrected the total on the left. All is good now.
