Verified issue does not already exist?

  • I have searched and found no existing issue

What happened?

When I click 'Override with budget template', all of the budgeted amounts are reset in categories that only have a Goal (e.g., #goal 100).

The docs state: 'The #goal directive does not allocate any funds, and manually budgeted amounts will not be reset by running templates.'

How can we reproduce the issue?

Click "Override with budget template" with one or more categories that have a goal (e.g., #goal 100) and any amount already budgeted.

Where are you hosting Actual?

What browsers are you seeing the problem on?

Chrome

Operating System

Windows 11
