I think the problem is that we're talking about two *separate* things.
Quicken has a notion of a 'recurring' payment, which is really just a
In order to keep down confusion and the chance of a double order going in to
initiate a bank transaction, I access my bank account via its online link
using my browser, not with Quicken. I manually post each transaction in
Quicken as I make it. I access my bank accounts daily and there is a column
in Quicken where I enter a "c" for completed transaction each time I see a
transaction has been posted at my bank. I guess you could compare my way of
doing business to driving a vehicle with a stick shift instead of an
automatic transmission. It gives the user more control. I could go on and on
explaining why I like to manually initiate processes in Windows such as
virus checks and defragmentation etc.
Back to Quicken. When I first discovered that Quicken could communicate with
my bank and post entries I knew that this did not meet my goals and
objectives. Again, I want my posts in Quicken to be immediately, as I
initiate each transaction, not later, when the bank posts the transaction.
When I manually post I enter the information as I wish. If I allowed the
bank to post it, they would enter the information as they wish.
