5 Budget Report possible bad Results - ID: 2818696
Last Update: Attachment added ( rcdabo )

I download the software and I'm surprise about how powerful the tool is,
but the thing is the following I think that the budget report is giving me
a wrong answer.

I configured a budget for spending account and then I charged a spend to
this account, then generate the budget report and you can see that the
budget is 700€ and the charge is -131,41€ and the result is the
absolute sum of each quantity which is |-131,41|+|700|=831,41.

Shouldn't be 700-131,41=568,59??

Step 1
Add a charge to spending account.
Step 2
Assign a budget to spending account
Step 3
Generate Budget Report

As you can see in the attachment the budget result should be -700 instead
of 2100.

You probably forgot to type the minus (-) signal with the inserted value.
GFP will place the minus automatically if you type the value before mark
the transaction as an expense. If you selected a expense type and after
that you entered the value, you need to type the minus signal.
You you want to confirm that, just list your transactions and you will the
that the 131,41 charge will be in "black" color, without minus signal. To
change that, just select the transaction, go to value field and type (-),
then save.

If none of this make sense to you, please, attach a screen shot here, with
the transactions window showing your charges.
