    And, please add the ability to set a variable interval for this. I have an e biller that bills me exactly every 30 days, no matter how many days are in the month, which means that my due date changes about every month.

    As mentioned in previous comments in this discussion, once a "Daily, every [xx] days" frequency has been created, your "every 30 days" needs will be covered.
    Just hoping that we'll get to see one or more of the requested new frequencies before I'm too old to use Quicken ... B)

    So I see this has been on the "planning" board for well over a year now. How long does it take to implement something like this? I'm not a programmer, but it doesn't seem like it would be that difficult.
    "tentatively anticipated to be included in the R30 release"; current version is R39.

    With more online shopping sites offering subscriptions, I would request more options for scheduling transaction frequency. Specifically, many Shopify subscriptions offer 30, 45, and 60 day subscriptions. These don't align to the current Quicken offerings of weekly or monthly schedules. In the Schedule Bill Reminder tab, could options be added for a custom number of days as it currently is for weeks and months?

    Apparently, this never got added. I too need to add a Paycheck reminder for the last business day of the month. Where do we vote for this?

    And, as it has been Planned for implementation since November of 2020, we may no longer vote for it.

    I must have missed the announcement in the Release Notes, but at least in Quicken for Windows R 43.20 there now is a Daily frequency interval available when adding or changing a Scheduled Reminder.
    Everybody, please go ahead and give that thorough test!
    Other frequencies and changes mentioned in this discussion still appear stuck on the drawing board.

    I missed it, too. There are 2 deficiencies I see right away.
    1. When set to Daily, the frequency is blank in the Reminders list.
    2. The Daily frequency is not an option in the Who When How variant of the Edit Reminder dialog.

    One Step forward. Two steps back.
    I can confirm @Rocket J Squirrel 's findings.
    Back to the programmers we go.

    @Quicken Victoria I point out to you that this IDEA thread was originally a merging of two same ideas created for BOTH the Windows AND Mac products. In migrating this forum to Vanilla, the designation for Mac was lost... BUT this idea thread is intended for both.

    So, please place this on your radar to implement any changes, at least the same ones as are being implemented for QWin.

    • More scheduling frequencies need to be added:
      Monthly, every 1 month, on [Date], but only on selected months: [_] Jan [x] Feb [x] Mar [x] Apr [x] May … [_] Dec
      This reminder occurs monthly only on [x]-marked months, skips the unmarked months and continues next year on the same schedule

      Examples for this type of frequency would be:
      - a teacher's salary for 10 months, skipping the summer holiday months
      - the bill to the lawn mowing service, every month from April thru October, and
      - the bill to the snow removal service, every month from November thru March
    • Every two weeks except on __/__/__, __/__/__, ...
      or maybe we should better name it
      Every two weeks, but only on selected months: [_] Jan [x] Feb [x] Mar [x] Apr [x] May … [_] Dec

    A similar request had once been mentioned in an archived discussion (which regular community users can't read)
