Confirm the ledger and period in the statistics view. Changing the scope changes totals and category distributions. Use consistent scopes when comparing periods.

Interpret the numbers

Statistics reflect saved records within the current scope. Imports, edits, deletions and synchronization may change the results. Check currency settings when conversion is involved.
