automated balancing
Posted: Mon Apr 08, 2013 2:26 am
I am evaluating AM and comparing it to features that I use in Quicken 2010 and 2013. Quicken has become so unreliable that it is almost useless but there are some features that my wife and I use regularly and consider necessary to making our life easier.
Is there a way to have the "download transactions" function cause all transactions that are marked as "I" convert to "R" - i.e. accept all transactions without requiring the user to check each transaction while not checking the transactions with a blank status code? I use this function in Quicken at least once a week to keep my check register up to date and verified. If the register balances, I go on my merry way, if it doesn't then I can look for the checks that have not been correctly recorded by me or the bank. Requiring that I wait until I receive a statement and then reconciling by hand is essentially a show stopper for me.
