Drafts waiting for review
A recurring entry does not post itself. It waits as a draft until you confirm the amount.

A recurring expense does not post itself. On the day it falls due it appears as a draft, and waits for you.
Why they wait
The figure you set when creating a schedule is a guess about the future. Bills move. A draft lets you correct the amount against what actually left the account before it counts towards anything.
Until it is posted, a draft is left out of your net spend. It is visible, but not yet counted.
Finding them
When drafts are waiting, a line beneath the Expenses heading says how many. It filters the list down to those.

Not counted in your net spend until posted.
In the list they carry an amber tint and a dashed edge, so they are hard to mistake for settled entries.
Posting or discarding
Review and post opens the entry so you can check the amount, the account and the date. Save it and it becomes an ordinary expense, counted like any other.
Discard removes that one draft.
Discarding is not cancelling
Discarding removes a single occurrence. The schedule behind it carries on, and the next one arrives as expected. To stop the series, change the recurring rule rather than discarding each draft as it appears.
Recurring and fixed
An entry created from a schedule keeps a Recurring badge after it is posted. A Fixed badge means something different — an entry recognised as a regular, unchanging cost with no schedule behind it.
