Default Re: Bill Calendar and Debt Planner? How do they work together?

If you are using Debt Reduction Planner you must not also enter in the Bill
Calendar. The DRP does that for you.

Default Bill Calendar and Debt Planner? How do they work together?

Ok I have read all I could find but I can't seem to find anything
that explains how the debt planner and bill calendar work together.
For the explanation of what I am doing I will talk of only one bill. I
entered my Providian credit card in the bill calendar. It is also in
the debt planner that has me paying a different amount so I will hit
the pay off debt date. I don't pay my bills through money because my
bank doesn't allow that just downloading of the statements. I am
hoping when I pay the Providian credit card from my banks website and
download the statements to money that the bill calendar will know its
been paid and delete or cross out the bill showing its been paid.
Using it as a check list would be great that way one glance at the
calendar I'll know what I have paid and what still needs to be paid.
Will the debt planner talk to the calendar? I saw a setting on the
bill calendar to auto fill in my banks register a few days before
payment. I tried this once but it appears that when the statement
downloads it doesn't see the two entries are the same. What are the
keys that tie two register entries together? If it's the payment
amount, that won't work because the debt planner adjusts the amount
plus sometimes I want to pay more than I budgeted for. During one test
the bill was grayed out with a line through it. Not sure what I did to
make this happen.

Any help understanding how this all ties together would be great.

Thanks
Ryan
