I don't understand why. In my expense account, I always enter rent the 
same way. Yet in the cash flow report, it only shows a portion of those 
entries in the total.

For example, in the case of rent, I pay $135 a month. In the cash flow 
report for the first six months, it shows a total for three months. When 
I click on the link, in shows all 6 transactions.

I took a look and it seems that other totals are affected also, and for 
three specific bills. I tried to compare those bills with the other 
three that work correctly but I didn't see anything out of the ordinary.

Well, since I've entered everything in the same manner, I have trouble 
understanding what types of linls are set up improperly.
