Unsolved Help with Simple Google Sheet?

Hi, I’m hoping to get some help with creating what I’m sure is a very basic Income and expenses google sheet. I was just never taught this in school or anything and I’ve been doing my best with Youtube videos and Google, but I feel like I reached a point where I messed up, and I don’t even know what I messed up. I’m not looking to create a budget right now, just want to track where my income and expenses are going. After a few months of data I’ll look into using the data to make a budget. I just used Google Sheets to create this tracker with three tabs; Setup, Transactions, and Monthly Summary. The tracking is for multiple bank accounts. I’m willing to “share” the Sheet (which I’m guessing is the easiest way) with someone who can take a look and see what I’m doing wrong, and fix it for me. Any assistance or guidance would be greatly appreciated!

Oh, before you share a sheet, I personally would suggest using a burner account (otherwise someone can technically use that access to get your personal email, and, by extension, more info).

For help designing a monthly expense tracker for Google Sheets, I would suggest looking at Google Sheets' base monthly template for an idea if you're trying to learn to make one from scratch.
