Verified issue does not already exist?

What happened?

I switched the budgeting style from the Envelope to Tracking, and the Budgeted column was cleared for all the months.

How can we reproduce the issue?

  • In the Budget page, set amounts in the budgeted column of your expense categories
  • Go to the Settings page
  • Switch to the Tracking Budgeting style
  • Go back to the Budget page
  • The Budgeted column would be empty now
  • Switching back to the Envelope style populates the column again.

This is expected as the two different budgets are fundamentally different so they each have their own values.

Great thanks! I searched but could not find any docs to clarify that.
