| Thanks for the info received from both Cal and Chris. This technique is still laborous but better than the other method I was using.

That's probably a waste of breath. You need to go to "Payee Rules Manager" on the payees page and add "Draft Withdrawal" to the list of Excluded Payee Names. That will make the payee blank on download. If you turned on "Use Autocomplete" in Global Account Settings, typing the first few letters of the name from the memo into the payee field will fill in the payee and most recent category. Some will advise that doing so means that downloading is a waste of time, but the date and amount are accurate and already filled in. Typing a couple of letters is easier than initiating the entire transaction as new. -- Chris Cowles Gainesville, FL |

Is there an easy way to tackle this issue? can make it better so at least Money won't be pre-filling in the same Payee that you used for your last Draft Withdrawal. Go to Banking-> AccountTools-> Categories&Payees-> GoToPayeeRulesManager. Excluded Payee Names identifies words and phrases that should be ignored from the payee field (e.g., check, deposit). Add "Draft Withdrawal". While you are at it, it is usually a good idea to select Tools-> Settings-> OnlineServices-> ReplacePayeeNames.... You may want to set Tools-> Settings-> OnlineServices-> AddADescriptionToTheMemoField |

| How do I get payee matching to work when all payees are listed as "Draft Withdrawal"? When money downloads my bank transactions, the identifying information on the transaction is entered into the MEMO field. I have used filtering to correct these transactions in the past, but this is just too laborous. Is there an easy way to tackle this issue? Thanks in advance -- PW |
