The transactions pie chart shows you your income vs expense based on the current search criteria. You can then drill down into your income or expense categories to see the contributing categories.
Here is an example of the pie chart based on All transactions:
Tip
In order to exclude transfers from the pie chart, you can change the 'Transaction type' search criteria to only show 'Non-transfer' transactions. For more detail on how to do this see Removing transfers from the transactions pie chart
Additional options for the Transactions pie chart
To the right of the pie chart, you'll see a couple of options allowing you to easily:

Note
The transactions pie chart allows you to easily drill-down into sub-categories. However, it's not possible to go back a step to the category above once drilled down. You will need to reset the graph and drill back down again.
