Budget Report Not Showing The Same amount as Budget Planning

fw6322+

Using Q Windows R45.21
Did a change to my 2022 budget where there was only one month with a budget amount.  Changed the amount to zero.  The Report continues to show the original amount.  

The following steps didn't help:

• Validated file ==> No Errors
• Closed and restarted Quicken
• Budget was set to all zeros on the line item.
• Unchecked the Category in the Budget.
• Created a new budget report.
• Still shows the original amount.

Ben using the Budget for years and have never seen this kind of issue!!!!

UPDATE:

• Did the super validate and that didn't help.
• Other task included reinstalling Quicken and deleted all Q System files and this didn't help.  Used the latest Q file from the website for the install.
  
• Quicken has Budget window open ==> Go to upper right to Budget Actions button == ==> Budget Reports and select Current Budget and all worked correctly.
• Second pathway is Reports at the top next to Help and chose Spending on the drop down ==> Current Budget and all worked correctly.
• The Icon for Reports and Saved Reports showed the $5,700 and there seems to be some pathway issues in Q.

Hello @fw6322+,   

We apologize about this problem with discrepancies in budget amounts. Thank you for alerting us to this here on the Quicken Community. 

I saw that you had tried validating the data file earlier; have you also attempted a Super Validation? Navigate back to your original data file, then you can save a backup by navigating to File > Copy or Backup File... in the upper menu at the top of the screen, then proceed through the following instructions, if you haven't already:

1. Navigate to File
2. Hold CTRL + Shift and click Validate and Repair File...
3. Select Super Validate File
4. Click OK
5. Close the Data Log
6. Close Quicken (leave it closed for at least 5 secs)
7. Reopen Quicken and see if the issue persists.

Let us know if this helps.

Thank you,

Quicken Jared

After changing your budget, did you close and reopen the budget report?

In the report, are you selecting the correct budget table by name and budget year?

Adding on to my earlier response:
In the report, double-click the blue amount to drill down to a transaction detail report. What date range do these transactions fall into?
