Why is My MFP Fat Goal 0g of Good Fats?

Hi everyone!
I just started using MFP, but I have been reading lots of info from this forum.
I was looking at my nutrition details today and found that the goals for polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats are 0g. I find this odd because they are known to be the good fats for our body.
And the total fat required for me is 40g, in which 13g is saturated fat, 0g poly and mono, and 0g trans fat (this's obvious.). The number does not add up. So I find it confusing.
Do you have the same problem?
Thanks!

I think it is saying that you can get your fat from either of those and not a specific amount of each.0
