AutoCat description cannot be blank

Google Sheets

I just learned something the hard way about AutoCat. This might be a bug or a feature I missed. Either way, if “description contains” is left blank and only $ amount has a value, this category will be applied to all blank rows all the way to the end of the Transactions sheet.

In my case I used category Auto & Gas and only filled in value $398 but nothing in the description column. I incorrectly though that it would find all transactions with $398 and apply Auto & Gas to them. It that actually but it continued down the sheet and filled Auto & Gas on all blank lines all the way down.

Hi @SailCS33,

Thanks for sharing this. This is interesting and somewhat unexpected, I think. I’ll check in with our engineering team on it.
