[No Thirst Software] scheduled transactions changed since last update

2009-05-25 Thread ciara belle

i think this happened with 1.4.7 update... i noticed it after 1.4.8
update though.

i have a scheduled transaction - created before i split it up -
2700... but now the future transactions are only for 324.68 which is
an amount from the january transaction (probably when i created.)

i have marked the repeat as never... and recreated it to monthly but i
even if i use a 'newer' transaction it STILL users that 1 portion of
the previous transaction split... and STILL using that Jan transaction
(i went back to jan and changed it to never repeat... then used an
April transaction for repeating... with different data in the splits
-- but it's still grabbing the Jan split amount (1 only of them)
rather than the total amount (2700.)

(i even went in to scheduled area - - that transaction is NOT there
before recreating it...   tried in both views (hide totals and show
totals)

the most confusing part is when i re-schedule it from the APRIL
transaction - it still grabs the data and memo from the JAN
transaction...

i realize that it cant yet repeat the splits - but i should be able to
schedule the Total of the splits at least.

[No Thirst Software] Re: Bank of America (California) - Cannot Connect

2009-05-25 Thread Kevin Hoctor

This probably has to do with a server glitch we had a couple days ago.  
Please try this again and let me know if it's still an issue.

 Hey,

 I am a regular user of Quicken Online (which is free), but its
 budgeting scope is very limited. I recently decided to try MoneyWell
 and I couldn't get past the first stage of adding my checking/saving
 account from Bank of America (California) account for automatic
 download of statements. I choose the bank and I click 'Continue' to
 find an error screen informing me that

 'The financial institution does not support direct connections.  
 Click
 Continue to add an account manually with this financial institution
 in
 web connect mode.'

 Is there any workaround for this problem? I am on a Mac, if that is
 an
 issue.

 Please advice,
 Thanks

[No Thirst Software] Re: How to account for payments and credits as relating to credit cards

2009-05-25 Thread Kevin Hoctor

 I have just downloaded MoneyWell and am trying to see how this tool
 will help me manage my finances. I believe I have a fairly good
 understanding of how to utilize MoneyWell, I am just not clear on how
 to handle assigning payments from my checking account towards my
 credit card and the credits on my credit card account.  In doing some
 looking around in the forum, it appears the method of choice is to
 utilize transfers.  I guess this would make sense to me if you could
 not direct download your credit card transactions.  I pay off my
 credit card balance monthly.  So on every bank statement I have a
 payment towards my credit card.  I do not now how to clear these from
 my unassigned SMART bucket after downloading without assigning to
 another bucket.  I would prefer not to create a dummy bucket.

Hi Larry,

As Lance stated, you can always set transactions to Bucket Optional  
in the context menu for the transaction list.

 The only other thing I could think of trying, would be to delete the
 credits after the direct connect on my credit card account and use the
 transfer option from my checking to mimic the credit to my credit card
 account.  This might work but it seems you should not have to delete a
 transaction that actually belongs.

 I hope this makes sense.  Any help in how to handle this issue would
 be greatly appreciated!


What I tend to do is to create a transfer when I make a payment and  
then when I use the direct connect download to import transactions,  
MoneyWell matches these up and merges the information properly. This  
way I get the connected transfer and I don't have to manually delete  
imported transactions.

[No Thirst Software] Re: Smart transaction matching a bit too broad...

2009-05-25 Thread Kevin Hoctor

On May 24, 2009, at 9:31 PM, David wrote:

 I have observed a bug locally that appears to simply reflect the way
 Smart Transactions function.

 We have Chase as a payee, for a credit card.  The first few
 transactions were processed and an auto-matching Smart Transaction was
 created.

 The problem is that a lot of our bank (Wells Fargo) debits contain the
 word PURCHASE, and this fires off the Chase auto-match rule, which
 then replaces the Payee name with the friendlier Chase.  This hides
 the details of the transaction and assigns a bucket Debt Repayment.
 Took half an hour to figure out...

 Is there any way to prevent partial matching of payees?  I realize
 that adding any complexity to this process gets into creating a
 programming language fairly quickly, with the attendant possibility of
 bugs.

 For now, I have deleted this Smart Transaction, and also turned off
 Auto-Memorize.  Is there a slicker workaround?


David,

You can change the aliases on memorized transactions to keep them from  
matching these broad stroke names. In the 1.5 release, I plan to  
give MoneyWell a list of don't match aliases to solve problems like  
this.

Please know that you can see the original payee and memo for a  
transaction in a tool tip by hovering your cursor over the Transaction  
Detail title bar.

You probably need to simply start from scratch and create a new  
transaction and tell it to repeat. The split issue is being addressed.
