What happened?

Issue when trying to create a new From History automation.

Backspace the number to put in my own number. Since there is no number it tries to parse null and crashes the automation modal with error:
"Something went wrong loading this section.safeNumber: number is not an integer: null"

Would expect a much more graceful ui experience for this situation.

I was able to reproduce consistently on firefox/chrome, and edge/last release.

How can we reproduce the issue?

  1. Open Automation UI on any category
  2. Add Automation
  3. "From History"
  4. Put cursor in "Number of Months Back" field
  5. Backspace in preparation to type your own number
  6. Kaplow!!

Where are you hosting Actual?

Docker

What browsers are you seeing the problem on?

Firefox, Chrome

Operating System

Linux
