My guess is that this isn't because of rules but because you are having syncing problems in general. Make sure your server is accessible by your client.

Having 2 browser tabs open breaks syncing in general, its a known issue.

ok i see but this is not handy especially when you first time setup your accounting and when you have to define a lot of settings for rules and budget categories without 2 tabs you have to browse a lot through the menus.
