    Sometimes a picture is worth a thousand words …
    Can you please capture one or more images of the parts of your Quicken window
    showing the issue, sensitive information blacked out as necessary to protect
    your privacy but annotated to describe the situation, and attach the image(s)
    here?

    Please save images to files of file type PNG, JPG, or GIF only. They're easier to work with than
    PDF files.

    Here are the screen shots. The first is the actual showing $0 amount for Home Insurance. The second is the result when you click on the $0 amount in the first window. The actual are in the system but not showing up in the prior months.

    Doublecheck the Splits for each of these transactions. Are the splits correct or did something change the assigned amounts? There have been reports about messed up splits …

    The splits are CORRECT. They are just not showing up in the budget chart. They show up in the report.

    The data still shows as correct "behind" the 0 total for the monthly budget. It is not addiing them together and posting them in the budget. It must be that the budget does not go "baxkward" in the process and adds in corrected amounts for splits. THanks for the effort. I supervalidated the file, closed it and reopened in about 1 minute.
