I am getting the following message in my urgent tasks list:

A fast offering expense without a fast offering recipient exists.

When I click on the task the following transaction opens:

Expense type: Check
Date: 31 Dec 2011
Purpose: Balance forward

followed by what looks to be a summary of every expense category used by the ward in 2011 with the sum total of every penny spent that year.

When I call up a FOR report for 2011 I get only a single entry showing

Ref No. : Balance Forward
Date: 31 DEC 2011
Category (multiple)
Fast Offering Recipient : name unknown
Purpose: balance forward
Status: Cleared

and then the amount of all FO expenditures for the year.

Harmless error? Bug? End of the world as we know it?

I spoke with MLS support about this issue in my stake. It is a bug that will be corrected in a software update later this month.
