Hi, I'm just wondering as to what the purpose is of the running balance total within expenses? If I create an expense, the total goes up. If I create a bill, the total goes up. If I match a payment to a bill, the total reduces. At no point does the expenses related total reduce. If this is by design, why? It's almost as if Bills should have it's own table as that value both increases and decreases. What value does it bring from a business perspective? Regards, Rob

Hi Rob,
Thank you for getting back to us on this and providing the step-by-step click path.
I know exactly which table you were referring now.
One of the use case for this total function I can think of is when you do a filter by transaction types, you can quickly obtain a snapshot of what's the total for different types of expense related transactions without running a report.
If you don't use the filter function, in this table then this total function might not provide valuable information for your decision making.
Hope this helps.

Hi Rob,
Thank you for reaching out on this.
May I clarify if you are referring to the "Expenses" tile on the Dashboard of your QBO file or you are referring to an actual expense report, please?
Thank you.
