What happened?

#7672 has broken the "live" status of the spending reports, no longer switching automatically to the current month.

Expected: Live reports automatically switch to the current month when the month rolls over
Actual: Spending reports now compare the month they were initially set up with (they behave like static)

Net worth and other report cards work like expected:

This is on version v26.6.0

How can we reproduce the issue?

  • Create a spending report as "Live"
  • Choose "Budgeted" or "Average" (not sure about "Single month")
  • let the month roll over
  • current month does not change

Recreate above steps on an earlier build (v26.5.0 or earlier) and notice the difference in beahivor

Where are you hosting Actual?

Docker

What browsers are you seeing the problem on?

Operating System

Windows 11

Copying the comment from @sys044 into here:

"Spending and Net Worth cards seem to handle "Live" mode slightly differently. e.g. in the Summary card, changing the "Compare" month from the current month will turn off Live mode, which is a bit clearer IMO."

The bug reported here #7648 and trying to fix here #7672 should really have been a fix, that changes the "Live" status from "Spending analysis" to "Static" automatically when a month is chosen, just like the "Net worth" report does (choosing any month, even the current month, switches to static).
