Verified issue does not already exist?

  • I have searched and found no existing issue

What happened?

Taken from discord and tested to replicate:

-> Start with a blank budget file

OR

-> To use the demo budget, delete all schedules which will also delete all the rules(can't delete the rules that are attached to schedules, so have to delete the schedules)

Open the rules page and you'll note it's missing the standard UI elements.

  • Explanatory Text
  • Search Box
  • Create new rule button

Work around:
This isn't a good one, but this does work.

  1. Add three transactions for the same payee and category, which will trigger the creation of an automatic rule.
  2. Now there's a rule, the rules page will load correctly.
  3. Delete the erroneous transactions.

This automatic rule has to be left in place until other rules exist.

What error did you receive?

No error messages.

Where are you hosting Actual?

Docker

What browsers are you seeing the problem on?

Firefox

Operating System

Windows 11
