Posted vs expected — what each means

Posted = real. Expected = recurring + planned not yet posted.

On this page

Posted totals on the Reports page in Extrack are real ledger transactions — things that already happened. Expected totals are recurring template occurrences and planned items not yet approved. The intro on Reports spells it out: "Past months show what posted; future months show what recurring + planned items are expected." The current month is a mix — posted-to-date plus expected-for-rest-of-month.

Section headings depend on anchor

When the anchor is the current month: "Past 5 months + this month" and "Next 6 months (expected)". When the anchor is a different month, the sections are titled "Posted (in window)" and "Expected (in window)".

Frequently asked

What counts as expected?

Recurring template occurrences with a due date in the month, plus planned items scheduled for the month. Both not yet approved.

A month shows expected ₹0 — why?

No recurring or planned items fall in that month. Either you have no schedules for the period, or you already approved them and they moved to posted.
