Verified issue does not already exist?

  • I have searched and found no existing issue
  • I will be providing steps how to reproduce the bug (in most cases this will also mean uploading a demo budget file)

What happened?

If a future transaction is being split by a rule, it will cause it to be double-counted in the running balance display.

In this transaction, the Payment amount is subtracted twice from the running balance. In the above example, It should be 10000 - 752.22 = 9247.78, not 8495.56 = (10000 - 752.22 x 2).

To reproduce the issue:

  1. Create a scheduled future transaction
  2. Add a rule to pick up the said transaction to perform a split
  3. Enable the Running Balance

Test budget attached:
2024-09-25-Test Budget.zip

Where are you hosting Actual?

Docker

What browsers are you seeing the problem on?

Chrome, Microsoft Edge

Operating System

Windows 10

Not fixed yet as of 24.12.0.

Running Balance should be 7743.34 if including the future transaction.

Or is this only fixed on Edge?

Oh, I missunderstood the comments in the other ticket. I think there is an open PR still that should help.

I'm seeing this issue with v25.1.0. This bug is irritating because it ruins the ability to have an idea of what future balances will be in the relevant account.

The fix seemingly didn't make it into the 25.1 release for some reason.

PR is #3897 but I don't see it in the release notes. Perhaps next month?

So what is the open PR? (I did a couple of searches but could not find anything obvious.)
