M2005 newbie Bank Update Accept to match with my pre-entered trans

#1 03-24-2005, 03:50 AM

There's an option in setup that determines whether the date on the
downloaded transaction overwrites the date already in the register copy it's
matching to.

You should be able to simply edit the transaction to correct/change the
Payee, category, etc and then Accept it.

Brand new user. Used to Quicken. Here's an example of my problem. On 3/10 I
write check number 200 to my church as category Charitable Donation. On
3/17, I update my Banking download and M2005 highlights my transaction with
an exclamation point and compares my transaction with Bank entry. Bank entry
is dated a week after I wrote check, and does not include my church payee
info. If I ACCEPT that the transactions are the same, then I end up with a
3/17 transaction line with no payee, and no category. If I say Do Not Merge,
then I end up with double entries, one complete that I manually entered, and
one half-empty from bank. How do I get them to match without losing payee,
category, and actual write date? All I really want to do is say, YES they
are the same but keep my info! That's the way Q works. How do I get M2005
not to lose my details, and yet 'C/E/R' appropriately? Thanks - fiddlet
