I'm not sure exactly what you are referring to, but either the Payee being
the same will do it or you are toast. I'm not **aware** of any linkage
between a transaciton once entered and teh scheduled bill that it once came
from besides the Payee name and source account. I could be way wrong here.

Be that as it may, I think those are your only two choices.

As noted above, I don't think there is any way to tell Money this and I'm
pretty sure this is because it doesn't care. Once you've paid a bill, it's
paid. But if you did this by entering a new transaction and leaving the
scheduled bill there, Money knows no better and assumes that you still want
to pay the bill.

Default Re: Howto associate existing transaction with overdue/upcoming payment?

With "associate" I mean that money should use the information from that
transaction.
E.g. I have the next bill amount set to estimate based on the last 2
transactions.
If Money misses a transaction the estimate will be wrong.

I do not want to delete an existing transaction and re-enter it, neither do
I want to skip an occurance of a payment.

If Money says, "you haven't paid this bill",
I want to tell Money, "yes I did, here is the transaction", and Money should
use the existing transaction.

Is this possible?

I don't know what you mean by "associate." Once you tell Money it's not the
scheduled bill, you have entered the transaction. Your only choice is to a)
delete the transactions and replace it with the scheduled one, or b) skip
the next occurrence of the scheduled one.

Default Howto associate existing transaction with overdue/upcoming payment?

When accepting downloaded transactions Money does not always recognize
scheduled bill payments, or I accidentally hit no when Money asks if this is
my scheduled payment.

How do I associate an overdue/upcoming bill payment with an entry that was
already downloaded/entered?

The help talks about finding transactions to see if they were paid, which I
can do, but still no option to associate a payment with the actual due bill.

Any ideas?

Pieter
