Calories burned data and exercise data does not tally

Is there any way to solve this data discrepancy issue?

Thanks for the details shared in your post. I appreciate your efforts to provide screenshots, unfortunately I was unable to check them. If possible, please follow these steps to attach a screenshot to your next reply.

The first screen shot shows an elliptical exercise beginning at 1:35 pm for 41:45 and a calorie burn of 479 calories, or approximately 11 calories per minute. An even distribution of that calorie burn would give approximately 172 calories per 15-minute period if the calories were distributed evenly. They rarely are, but the average is pertinent when compared with the second screen shot.

The second screen shot shows the 1:30 - 1:45 period with a total of 32 calories with subsequent 15-minute periods showing less calories - looks like 26 to 28 calories for each of the next two 15-minute periods. No way does that add up to 479 calories.

@LiliyaFitbit and @Singed -

Is it possible that the time of the exercise record is off by 4 hours hours?

Look at the calorie burns for the period starting before 10:00 and ending sometime after 10:00. Sure looks like just under 500 calories. Or did you perform another exercise earlier?

From what I can see, it's not being calculated into calories

For example, with other Elliptical sessions, the fitbit can show me the fatburn/cardio  percentage.

However for that particular Elliptical session (Monday 1:35PM), there's none.

So that earlier activity in the calorie chart was the 10:09 Treadmill session.

@MrMarv you're right. The earlier activity captures the 10:09 treadmill session. So far I haven't seen any time gap between session and actual exercise, at least not up to 4 hours.
