Nutrient Goals and Total Caloric Goal not matching up?

Not really a tech issue - but app won’t let me chose a different category (guess THAT is a tech problem - HA!)
Why do my Nutrient goals show 20-30 grams of both carbs and protein left & zero fat - but I’m already over my daily caloric goal? What isn’t calculating or off?

You might have used incorrect database entries. If you want to check: carbs and protein are 4kcal per gram (except fiber and sugar alcohols) and fat 9kcal per gram.
Also: alcohol contains calories, but isn't a carb, fat or protein.0
