Templates are not without problems. And sometimes difficult to diagnose. Almost impossible without seeing the actual spreadsheet (not just an image).
Is it possible for you, therefore, to post either your actual OR, if you don't want to share your personal finances, a copy of the original template as you get it from the source...put it on OneDrive or GoogleDrive and paste a link here that grants access. Or paste a link here to the original template--there are many personal budget templates, so it would take some time for one of us to go figure out which one it is.

To go a step further, if you really want help, you need to provide more information. A cry for "Help!" doesn't give anybody anything to work with. So go back and read the rest of what I wrote--tell us what template (with a link, ideally) you're finding hard to work with, etc., etc., etc.
