Using Numbers Monthly Budget Template - beginner

I am new to this format and trying to add my ‘actual’ expenditure to the template. One or two fields seem to take the amounts others com up as a syntax error (see below). Can anyone advise how the figures should be entered 🤔?

Thanks for your reply, I’m so not good at this. I put the 550, that’s what I was trying to enter in to the field when the error message came up. I will take another look but thanks for replying so promptly anyway.


Just keep trying and you'll get the hang of it.


That's a cell with a formula so you don't want to be putting a 550 in there.


You want to put an expense of 550 as a new row in the Transactions table on the next sheet (tab). Then the formula will capture that in the total.
